TO 

MARGARET LONGSTRETH SMITH, 

BY WHOSE INITIATIVE 

WAS BEGUN 

AND BY WHOSE ENCOURAGEMENT AND SUPPORT 

WAS COMPLETED 

THIS REVISED RECORD OF 

THE LONGSTRETH FAMILY. 



PREFACE. 



In 1874 there was published a genealogical record of the 
descendants of Bartholomew Longstreth as part of the Dawson 
Family Records, by Charles C. Dawson. That record is the 
foundation on which the present work is built. Without the older 
records which it contains, pointing out, as they do, the direction 
where search should be made, the tracing of many lines of descent 
would have been well nigh impossible at the present time, when 
so many belonging to the older generations who were then living 
have since passed on. 

In this revision there seemed a call for certain improvements 
besides the important one of bringing the genealogy to date. The 
points aimed for have been : The tracing of neglected lines of 
descent ; the introduction of more extended biographical sketches, 
particularly of the older generations ; the tracing of ancestry 
more fully in marriage alliances ; and the correction of many 
mistakes. 

The work of collecting data has been long and often difficult, 
occupying for some four or five years much of the leisure time 
in a busy life, and entailing the writing of about three thousand 
personal letters. In some branches of the family an indifference 
to genealogy has been found that is hard to overcome, and from 
these sources it has been impossible to obtain full and reli- 
able information ; the material asked for has sometimes been tardy 
in coming, and incomplete when it came. Sometimes it has not 
come at all. The number of such delinquencies has been, how- 
ever, happily small in comparison with the majority of cases, 
where the inquiries have met with cheerful response. 

No facts are set forth in this book except on what is believed 



8 The Longstreth Family Records. 

to be reliable authority. A reasonable effort has been made to 
reach every member of the family, and most of the information 
has been obtained at first hand. For by-gone generations, old 
family records, when such exist, are considered first authority; 
otherwise, data have been sought from the nearest of kin now 
living. Meeting records, records of wills, and collections of 
manuscripts, have been consulted ; also various genealogies and 
histories, the names of which appear in the footnotes. 

Care has been taken to distinguish sharply between history 
and tradition, although the truth of the latter is not thereby 
assailed ; where there is a conflict between accounts, whether in 
tradition or history, both versions are given. There is, however, 
one tradition current in many families that deserves a special 
word ; this is, the tradition that an ancestor came to America with 
William Penn, this being taken to mean in his very ship. In most 
cases, to have " come over with Penn " simply means to have 
belonged to Penn's colony. This colony was organized in Eng- 
land, and its members sailed in many ships at different times 
extending over a period of some two years or more, both before 
and after Penn's coming. A practically complete list of passen- 
gers of the ship Welcome is accessible, and only those who are 
named in that list are herein credited as having come over with 
Penn.^ 

Notwithstanding all the care that has been spent to make this 
Record accurate, it would be presumptuous to expect that mis- 
takes have not crept in, despite watchfulness ; for all these the 
compiler begs your indulgence. But may it be added that per- 
haps all mistakes cannot justly be laid at her door. Conflicting 
data are sometimes sent by members of the same family ; parents 
send dates of their children's birth differing from those sent by 
the children themselves, and the inquiry blanks sometimes con- 

' This list is given in Watson's " Annals of Philadelphia," Vol. TIT., p. 37.

tain remarkable statements. For example, one says that the 
writer was born in 1880, and married in 1891 ; one person says 
that he was married in August, 1909, and has two children, one 
born in 1901, the other in 1903; a copy from old family records 
makes one child born January 3, 1822 ; the next, March 22, 1822 ; 
another, writing of his own family, says one child was born 
December 20, 1867 ; the next, February 3, 1868. One reports 
his wife as born in i960; and, strangest of all pen-slips, perhaps, 
is that of one who gave his wife's maiden name as his own sur- 
name in writing his name at the top of the inquiry blank. 

These are a very few of the mistakes of like kind received; 
being evident, they have been corrected ; but how many more may 
there be, which, not being self-evident, have not been detected. 

Should any member of the family who loves the old order 
of things regret to find in the record of this family who were 
Friends for so many generations, that the Friendly manner of 
writing dates has been departed from, let it be said that after the 
genealogy was more than half finished the change was made in 
the interest of greater accuracy. In many genealogies examined, 
confusions were frequent, as between i mo. 12, and 12 mo. i, so 
that the system of dating was changed to leave no occasion for 
such errors. 

This foreword cannot be closed more fitly than in expressing 
acknowledgment for the many kindnesses that this record has 
met with all along its way. To mention by name all who have 
contributed to its pages would be almost to repeat the list of 
living members. To all these sincere thanks are tendered. Spe- 
cial thanks, however, are due to those who, at the expense of 
some labor, have contributed extended records ; among these 
should be mentioned. Miss Graceanna Lewis, Miss Mary A. 
Michener, who first opened the door of communication with the 
large branch bearing her name ; Mrs. Anne Chandlee, Mrs. Mary 
A. Strain, Carlos B. Michener. Miss Elizabeth Spencer, Miss 



lo The Longstreth Family Records. 

Elizabeth Homey, Henry Mather, Mrs. Harriet Mounts, Mrs. 
Sarah Hartenstine, Charles Starr Davis, Mrs. Georgie Etta 
Simpson, Edwin L. Parry. 

The compiler recognizes her great indebtedness to John L. 
Longstreth for the privilege of free access to his valuable col- 
lection of Longstreth papers, and for his untiring interest in the 
censorship of all that part of the manuscript that relates to the 
Homestead and its occupants; also, to Mrs. Rebecca P. Hunt, 
Mrs. Anna H. Hoskins, Mrs. Amelia Lambert, and Miss Emily 
Hallowell, for general counsel and guidance in research, the latter 
of whom also lent the copper-plates for many of the illustrations. 
Among those not belonging to the family, though allied with it, 
who have aided this Record, should be named Gregory B. Keen, 
LL.D., Dr. Truman Coates, as well as the authors of the various 
genealogies consulted, which are named throughout these pages. 
In addition, the compiler's thanks are due to many others, both 
within and without the family, whose names, though not men- 
tioned here, are written upon a grateful memory. 

And last, but by no means least, in the list of those who have 
contributed to whatever success this Record has attained, is the 
name which stands upon the page of dedication, together with 
those of four others who have borne the financial burden of pub- 
lication. 

To all the family this genealogy is offered, in the hope that 
it may bring information to many, pleasure to all, disappointment 
to none.

EXPLANATION. 

Every person in this Record except the first is designated by 
a double number, made up of a generation number and an indi- 
vidual number in that generation. Bartholomew Longstreth 
stands alone in the first generation ; his children, being of the 
second, are numbered 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, etc.; his grandchildren are of 
the third, and so are numbered 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, etc., according to the 
order of primogeniture. 

To trace the ancestry of any person, first find the name by 
the index, — for example, Elizabeth L. Taylor. Turning to the 
page, her number is found to be 5-587. Turn back to the fourth 
generation, where this number occurs in the list of children; it is 
found among the children of 4-173, THOMAS B. LONG- 
STRETH; turn back then to the third generation, where 4-173 
comes in the list of children ; he is found to be the son of 3-70, 
JOSEPH LONGSTRETH ; turn back once more to the second 
generation, and 3-70 is seen to be the son of 2-11, BENJAMIN 
LONGSTRETH. 

To trace downward, reverse the method, looking for the num- 
bers distinguishing a person among the heavy-face figures before 
each leading name in the succeeding generation. 

The names of persons of Longstreth descent are printed in 
CAPITALS, marriage connections, in italics. In the lists of 
children, a name placed after, shows the marriage alliance, and 
the record of that person will be found forward. The record of 
unmarried children ends under their parents' record. 

The abbreviations, b., d., m., unm., mean born, died, married, 
unmarried.

The Longstreth family owes its name to the earliest known 
place of its residence, Longstrother Dale, Deanery of Craven, in 
the West Riding of Yorkshire, England, which was the home 
of the Longstreths for unknown generations. Longstrother 
Dale was included in the original Fee surveyed under the Terra 
Will'mi de Perci in Domesday Book, which records the distribu- 
tion of lands made by William the Conqueror. The region must 
have been prosperous, for by a survey of the Percy Fee taken in 
1502, the rental of Longstrother Dale was £140. 15s. gd., while 
the annual value of the whole of the great estate in Yorkshire be- 
longing to the Percys, Dukes of Northumberland, was only 
£1348. 

The Dale has received mention from the pens of two import- 
ant English writers. One of these is Chaucer, in his " Canterbury 
Tales," written about 1390; from this remote and obscure dale 
probably sprang the two scholars whom Chaucer has made the 
subject of his " Reeve's Tale," whose dialect in the story is recog- 
nized by northern men as precisely the modern dialect of Craven : 

" Of a town were they born that highte [was called] Strothir, 
Fer in the North, I can nat telle where." 2 

^ For accounts of the name and family, see Whitaker's " History and 
Antiquities of the Deanery of Craven," Fuller's " Worthies of England," 
Hall's " Chronicle," Taaffe's " History of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, 
or Knights Hospitallers, Knights Templars, Knights of Rhodes, Knights of 
Malta," Speight's " Craven and the Northwest Highlands of Yorkshire," and 
" Upper Wharfedale." For accounts of Langstroth Dale, see the last; also 
Cohley's " On Foot Through Wharfedale," White's " A Month in Yorkshire," 
Stanford's " Tourists' Guide to West Riding," Bogg's " Wharfedale " and " A 
Thousand Miles in Wharfedale." 

* Wright's edition of Chaucer, line 4012. See footnote to these lines in con- 
firmation of the identity. 



i8 The Longstreth Family Records. 

The strength of the supposition that Strother means Long- 
strother Dale Hes in the fact that no other place of the same name 
occurs in the Deanery records of the Northern Counties. 

The second mention of the name is in Drayton's " Polyol- 
bion," a poetical ramble over England, written in 1622. In its 
quaint personification of places, the poem represents the West 
Riding to be singing the praises of the Wharfe River, as follows : 

" Next guide I on my Wharfe 
Who her full fountain takes from my waste western wild, 
Whence all but mountaineers by Nature are exiled. 
On Longstrothdale, and lights at th' entrance of her race, 
When, keeping on her course along through Harden Chace, 
She watereth Wharfedale's breast that proudly bears her name. 

Ye thus behold my hills, my forests, dales, and chaces 
Upon my spacious breast; note to what Nature places 
Far upon my West, first, Langstrothdale doth lie. 
And on the bank of Wharfe my pleasant Harden, by 
Chevin Kilnsey Crags, were they not here in me 
In any other place right well might wonders be." 

The Longstreths were not a family of any great prominence, 
though the names of a few are preserved in history, notably that 
of John de Longstrother who appears in the Civil Wars. They 
were mainly of the yeoman class, which has been called the 
" backbone of England," and cultivated their acres — sometimes to 
good profit — fought for their king in troublous times, and served 
their God according to their light. It was chiefly from the plain 
people that George Fox's followers were recruited. 

The parish registers and the records of the court at York 
show that they wandered little from their native dale — indeed, a 
change of residence was not in the Middle Ages the easy matter 
it is to-day — and most of them lived and died in Longstrother 
Dale, or in the near-by parishes.

streth family, two of its members ^ made a tour through the an- 
cestral region in 1894; the record of this journey gives so good a 
picture of present-day conditions, that, remembering how slowly 
appearances change in a district as remote and little travelled as 
this is, one can form from their account a fair idea of conditions 
two centuries ago when Bartholomew Longstreth left the dale 
to try his fortune in the New World. 

The account is in the form of diary letters. 

Settle, July 21, 1894. 

The Rev. Mr. Crofton, incumbent of Giggleswick, has brought us 
from his church the oldest register that I might search for marriages, 
births and deaths of any of the Longstreth family. They are written on 
parchment. The writing is in a small crabbed hand, contractions used, 
and in bastard Latin. The pages are so grimed and dimmed, and in 
some places even rotted away by damp, that it is an impossibility for me 
to read what is written. The earliest records begin in 1548. There 
seems to have been no marriages recorded, though there were fifty-seven 
births and thirty-one deaths. ... I made the acquaintance of Mr. 
Thomas Brayshaw, solicitor, who has lent us many books and given 
most freely of his extensive knowledge, he being an antiquarian, local 
historian, and archaeologist. He spent an hour or more with me in his 
library hunting in the record of wills at York for any of the Lang- 
stroths, of which we found some enumerated below. I also called twice 
on Rev'd Mr. Crofton, incumbent of Giggleswick. After luncheon we 
went up to Horton to call upon Mr. John Foster to secure any records 
he might have, but failed to find him. Our route was up the valley of 
the Ribble River which heads up on the west side of the hills from whose 
east flank begins Langstroth Dale, where are the head waters of the 
Wharfe. Following down this stream comes Kettlewell Dale and then 
Wharfedale. The valley of the Skirfaire River (creek, as we should 
call it) which flows into the Wharfe at Amerdale Dub is called Litten- 
dale, and in it is the parish and church of ArnclifTe. 

The late incumbent has written lovingly of his dale, and his book, 
" Littendale, Past and Present," and H. Speight's book, " The Craven 
and Northwest Highlands of Yorkshire," are the two books which con- 
tain the most detailed accounts of this region so interesting in itself and 
so particularly interesting to us.

20 The Longstreth Family Records. 

Continuing our diary, — to-day we took a pair of horses and drove 
upon the moor, a most desolate and bleak highland on which crops out 
the limestone of the region. We have seen no ploughed land hardly 
since we left Manchester, and the agriculture being entirely pastoral, but 
few farm laborers are needed. There being no factories in these upland 
moors or the dales of which I am writing, the population remains what 
it was when first enumerated four hundred years ago. This is a region 
several hundred square miles in extent where the whistle is never 
heard, — the farthest in fact from a railroad of any in England, — and yet 
a region of varied and absorbing interest. Historically, too, and in 
monuments of far distant times belonging to the earliest records of 
human activity in this country, there are to be found matters of no ordi- 
nary importance. Prehistoric man, Druid, Roman, Saxon, Dane, Nor- 
man, — all have left their mark. Scenically, the district, being built up 
mainly of limestone, presents a surface bold and picturesque, a combina- 
tion of the sublime and the beautiful. High mountain masses isolated 
or in ranges, with perpendicular walls that rise in a succession of pla- 
teaux or terraces formed by the weathering of the horizontal beds of 
rock, are notable features of the landscape. On the summit of these 
tablelands are often tarns or lakes, and the hills give rise to innumerable 
springs so that running streams abound. Now in July the whole coun- 
try is verdant with rich nutritious grasses on soil never " tickled with 
the plough." Thus lying remote for the most part from any large towns, 
the customs, manners, and pastoral habits of the people have remained 
in great measure undisturbed. 

We took a pair of horses to-day and drove up steep roads to the 
private grounds of Mr. Morrison, formerly Member of Parliament for 
this district, whose house is built on the edge of Malham Tarn, a sheet 
of water several miles in circumference. We were wanting to make 
acquaintance with the incumbent of the parish church of Kirkly Mal- 
ham and met him on the road walking briskly along to call on Mr. Mor- 
rison. So we stopped and spoke to this Rev. Mr. Henley, a gentleman 
of perhaps sixty years, who was taking a ten-mile airing on foot with 
the vigor of a young man. He appointed to meet us at his rectory; 
then we lunched at Malham^ and I went up to see Gordale Sear, a minia- 
ture Yosemite. This is a crevice in the limestone rock, about thirty 
feet wide and three hundred high, down which comes a beautiful water- 
fall. 

Picking up Mr. Henley on his return we went with him to the rec- 
tory. We looked over the church records but found nothing about the 
Longstreths. Mr. Henley pointed out the signatures of Oliver Crom- 
well [as witness] to a marriage record. 

The driver took a twelve-mile round on the level low lands rather

than a five-mile trip over the high moors, and we were delighted with 
the fertile region. Long Preston through which we passed is a beautiful 
and well kept village. We thus made a charming round full of interest, 
and this evening Mr. Crofton brought his church registers for us to 
examine. 

July 22. 

To-day we went early to meeting and as the word had gone out 
among Friends of our presence and errand, we were welcomed at the 
door. After meeting we went through the building set apart for school 
purposes, Friends conducting successful First-day schools. Afterwards 
we went to see the Holy Well of Giggleswick, one that ebbs and flows. 
In the afternoon we called on a Mrs. Baldwin, nee Langstroth. Her 
brother Stephen became a Friend in his later years and was supported 
by Friends. Another brother, Robert, came in during our call. They 
are to hunt up any records they may have and bring them to us. We 
heard also of a Craven Langstroth who has moved to Carlton in Skipton. 
We took tea with Miss Thompson and her sister, to whom we had been 
referred. They showed us all the Friends' Records of Settle Meeting, 
but no reference was in them to our family. 

July 23. 

To-day we began our pilgrimage to our ancestral Dale, driving up 
to the bleak, and except for grass, desolate moors. In some places 
there is heather which growing a foot or two high forms a cover for 
grouse. We saw the " huts " from which the birds are shot, the men 
driving them up to these little barricades just high enough to shelter a 
man from sight. This still hunting is mere murder. The roads were 
desperately steep, going straight up the face of these high hills, and in 
places we all walked. At last we reached the divide between Ribbledale 
and Littendale. We turned down the latter hoping to see the Rev. Mr. 
Shufifrey, the vicar, author of " Littendale, Past and Present." Mr. 
Shufifrey was not at home, but the sexton showed us the register which 
begins only at 1676; though we searched diligently we found only one 
Langstroth named John who died in 1816. After a good lunch in the 
hostelry, all of which we have found clean and neat except that at Mal- 
ham, we drove down Littendale to Kettlewell Dale, the river Skirfaire 
here joining the Wharfe whose waters rise in Langstroth Dale. The 
Rev. Mr. Haslewood of Kettlewell showed us his records, but they did 
not mention the Langstroths, so we passed on up the valley of the 
Wharfe to Buckden, where we saw Rev. R. F. R. Anderton, incumbent 
of Huberholme. He showed us his register which begins at 1722, and 



22 The Longstreth Family Records. 

from then to 1795 there was no record of a Langstroth. We passed 
without knowing it an abandoned Friends' burial ground at the little 
hamlet of Starbottom which has been sold for iio. to Mr. Basil Wood, 
but is not to be disturbed. 

Buckden, Langstroth Dale. 

Now our foot is on our native heath! We do enjoy the sense of 
verifying the fact of the family's originating here and of seeing the very 
scenes familiar to them. The most convincing proof (if, indeed, any 
were needed) that we have come upon of the existence of the family 
here is from the list of wills recorded at York. It noted

June 28, 7 Edward VI 

Here are four of the family dying in seven years and rich enough to 
make wills. If we get to examine them they may be of interest. 

At Buckden we stayed all night and were directed to Farmer Tim- 
othy Simpson, a typical Yorkshireman, we were told. He did not know 
of any Langstroth having ever lived in the valley,— indeed did not know 
the name. They made inquiry of an old woman who said that Cowside 
Farm at Cam Fell, the very hillside on which are the head springs of the 
Wharfe, once belonged to John Langstroth. Per contra, Adam Lodge, 
a middling old man, never heard of anybody named Langstroth. 

July 24. 
This morning Rev. Mr. Anderton drove up with us to his church at 
Huberholme ' a mile away. He showed us over this curious old church, 

' This name is given as Huburgeham in the " Domesday Book." The fol- 
lowing account of the church is from Whitaker's " History of Craven": " The 
chapel of St. Michael, Huberholm, bears marks of very high antiquity. In 
the account of Henry, Earl of Northumberland, relating to the Percy fee, 
1502 is the entry: ' In thannuity of a Priest syngj-nge w^m Hobh'm chapell in 
the 'same Forest of Langstroth Dale, x s.' Over the entrance of the chancel 
is an entire and curious rood-loft of oak, very handsomely wrought, and 
painted with broad red lines. On the front of the roodloft is this inscription:

which is one of only three in which there is a rood-loft still extant. The 
rood (crucifix) screen that separates the chancel from the nave has 
above it a gallery of some six feet wide, and from this the singers sent 
forth their praises, and matters of special importance were announced 
to the congregation. This loft is painted in crude colors and a quaint 
decoration. 

The nave is divided from the side-aisles by big pillars of undressed 
stone, the arches being round on the south side and pointed on the north. 
The building is of the thirteenth century, though tradition and the differ- 
ent styles of architecture point to an earlier church on the same site. 
How the mind is carried back in thinking of the generations of ances- 
tors who worshipped here! In the churchyard stands an old sun-dial 
formerly supporting a cross. We looked at the gravestones, but none 
of those legible recorded a Langstroth. I felt as if I could linger here 
all day, so pleasing was the place and the old church, but we had been 
called upon the previous evening by young Mr. Wood and his sister, 
who, having driven down to see the Friends' burying ground at Star- 
bottom which their father had just bought, had heard of our coming and 
stopped to invite us to visit them at Outershaw, the uppermost end of 
Langstroth Dale. A noticeable thing in England is that at every mile 
or so they have a new name for the place and every hillside and rivulet 
has its name. Thus after leaving Huberholme we soon came to the four 
or five houses of Yockenthwaite, and then came Deep Dale, then Beggar 
Mans. Here our road left the valley and we began to mount to Outer- 
shaw. As we came in sight of the Hall we saw the two young ladies of 
the house and their two brothers working in the hayfield, enjoying their 
escape from London, and the novelty of hay-making; they were tossing 
the hay with their hands, as were the other haymakers we passed. Miss 
Wood told us that the people would not use pitchforks, saying that their 
fathers had tossed it so, and it was good enough for them. 

death put an end to the worship of images, and therefore to the use of 
roodlofts in English churches. Nearly from the Conquest to the present day 
this humble edifice has been the only resort of the foresters of Long.strother 
for public worship, and the only deposit of their dead, its foundations long 
preceded the stately piles of Fountains, Bolton, Kirkstall and Sallay Abbeys, 
and has much longer survived their fall. The old chapel was restored in 1863. 
It consists of a nave with two aisles, chancel without arch; low, square 
west tower, and south porch dated 1696. The south arcade has four circular 
arches, built of rough stones, without the slightest dressing or moulding, the 
piers are also rough. The north arcade has four arches^ the three towards 
the west are pointed, but the fourth in the chancel is remakably flat. The 
roofs are all covered with lead. The roodscreen and loft still remain; the 
loft has a railing on each side, with thirteen panels pierced with rude Gothic 
tracery; upon the beam is carved as above. The entrance to the loft was at 
the northeast angle, apparently by means of a ladder."

[After an appreciative description of the house and family, the narra- 
tive continues.] 

They drove with us till we came to the end of the Dale, to Cam Fell, 
where is Cowside Farm which the old woman at Buckden said had been 
occupied by John Langstroth. We returned to Buckden and hearing of 
the Friends' burying ground here and that there was a Friend who came 
over from Wensley Dale to care for it, we decided to go hunt him up to 
see if we could find any record of interments. To reach Wensley Dale 
we crossed the hills north of Langstroth Dale, and driving down reached 
Aysgarth. Here resides Thomas Bradley, clerk of the meeting. He had 
to go to Hawes to a monthly meeting on Wednesday, so, as it rained, 
we lay over at the little inn at Aysgarth. I visited an abandoned meet- 
ing-house here, now used as a barn, but where our landlord said he had 
attended crowded meetings. The graveyard is well cared for, but there 
were no Langstroth headstones. 

July 26. 

We drove over with Mr. Bradley to Carperby meeting-house and he 
kindly got out the records. We went over all prior to 1698 and found 
no Langstroth names, but he has promised when the records are over- 
hauled, as ordered by the meeting, that if there are any references of 
interest to us they shall be copied. Thus we have examined the records 
of the meetings of Settle and Carperby (or Aysgarth), and the church 
records of Giggleswick, Malham, Arncliffe, Kettlewell and Huberholme, 
and Mr. Jno. Foster is about to examine those of Horton which he has 
copied out with loving care. 

We drove on to Hawes where we crossed the divide between Wens- 
ley Dale and Ribble Dale. At Horton we called again upon Mr. Foster 
who was, as everyone has been, most courteous and anxious to aid us. 
On my speaking of my desire to find authority for the Longstreth coat- 
of-arms, he turned to Burke, and there it was, just as we have it. Thus 
our notable, pleasing, and in one way entirely successful trip came to a 
gratifying climax in finding the coat-of-arms. 

So ends the account of this ancestral pilgrimage. While the 
journey did not result in finding any records concerning Bartholo- 
mew Longstreth himself, or in tracing his immediate ancestors, 
as had been hoped, yet the visit was valuable in establishing two 
points. First, the knowledge gained of the region and its peo- 
ple serves to strengthen the probability of the various traditional 
accounts of Bartholomew Longstreth current in the family — his 



The Longstreth Family. 25 

character, position, etc. — as conditions in his native dale are all in 
harmony with the production of just such a man as he is said to 
have been. And second, that lack of mention in the records of 
West Riding must not be taken as contradicting the accepted facts 
of his early life, for while the writer of the diary-letters found no 
Langstroth's name in most of the registers, including that of Set- 
tle Meeting, yet Bartholomew Longstreth's certificate of removal 
from Settle to Pennsylvania was received and placed on record 
in this country. In the list of wills the majority of the decedents 
of whom any place of burial is given were buried at Huberholme 
Church, but the existing records go back only to 1722, twenty- 
four years after Bartholomew Longstreth left England. As 
Longstreth Dale belongs to the parish of Huberholme it seems 
almost certain that if the earlier records were in existence, in 
them would be found the much desired information. Some care- 
lessness or disaster will easily account for the loss of records in 
the days when damp-proof and fire-proof safes were unknown. 

The entries found by Mr. Foster in the Horton church rec- 
ords are given in Appendix A. There also is given a list of wills 
published in the York County Records, and the text of the will 
of George Langstroth mentioned in the diary-letter, in Appendices 
B and C. 

While the Longstreth family is not a prominent one in his- 
tory, it emerges from obscurity now and then, and receives men- 
tion in official reports and records and in contemporary history 
sufficient to show that it held a respected position in Yorkshire. It 
would be interesting if the family could be traced back to that 
envied starting-point for English pedigrees, the Domesday Book 
of William the Conqueror, but no such ancient record has been 
found. The name is Saxon in derivation, and therefore it seems 
safe to assume that those who possessed it did not belong to the 
Norman conquerors, but to the English conquered. 

The earliest known mention of the name is given in Fuller's 



26 The Longstreth Family Records. 

" Worthies of England," where, among the Gentry of Yorkshire 
returned by the Commissioners in 12 Henry VI. (1434) is the 
name of Roger Tenand de Langstrath, yeoman. Whitakcr's 
" History of Craven," says : " The name of this valley is Long- 
stroth or Longstrother, which means a spongy flat valley, and 
probably gave birth to John Longstrother so greatly distinguished 
in the wars between the two houses." In another place it says : 
"In 1499 there were in Longstrothdale ten lodges, each consist- 
ing of several tenements. The names of the old tenants were 
chiefly Calfherd (which gives the etymology of Calvert), Falds- 
hagh (Fanshaw), Lodge, Forster, Jake and Longstrothe, of which 
the last were probably the immediate relatives of the celebrated 
Prior of St. John of Jerusalem." 

This John Longstrothe, Prior of St. John, is the only one of 
the name who played any important part in the affairs of his coun- 
try. His name appears frequently in Taaflfe's " History of the 
Order of St. John," and a William Longstrothe is also men- 
tioned. This order was variously called Knights of St. John, 
Knights Hospitallers, Knights Templars, Knights of Rhodes, 
Knights of Malta. An account of the Order condensed from 
Taaffe's " History " shows the esteem accorded to its members, 
particularly to those who had risen to its high honors. In explana- 
tion of titles it may be said that the Prior was head of the Order 
in England, the Turcopolier head of the English language every- 
where. 

" This [the mid-fifteenth century] was the precise 
climax of the period when the order is said to have been more 
flourishing and rich than it ever was. They [the knights] were 
the choice officers of all Christendom, and enough to lead their 
hired troops, which were likewise excellent, as picked out of 
every Christian nation. The grand master was then held to bf 
the most powerful Christian sovereign in the Levant; and for 
about a century no mendicant is said to have been in Rhodes or

any of its numerous islets. The able-bodied had plenty of work ; 
and for the sick and old, they were cared for by the state, as is 
just. As for crimes there seem not to have been any." 

A chapter-general of the order was held at Rome in 1446; 
among the English knights attending are named Sir Hugh Mid- 
dleton, Turcopolier; Sir William Langstrother, Bailly of the 
Eagle; Sir William Tong, Commander of Wilton. These two 
last were chosen by the entire Language of England to represent 
them. " In 1454 a letter from the King of England, Henry VI., 
to the Venetians implores them to be juster and kinder to the 
Hospitallers who were defending the universal cause of Christen- 
dom ; and that, but for the Hospitallers, the whole of Europe 
would be ruined. The Langstrother of whom King Henry 
speaks as the Hospital's ambassador in England and an English- 
man was Sir John Langstrother, Commander of Basal and Gras- 
ton in England, and later Bailifif of the Eagle, but eventually 
raised to several of the foreign dignities in the order and died 
Grand Commander of Cyprus in 147 1. So there were two Lang- 
strothers, William and John, contemporary knights of Rhodes." 

In the record of a chapter-general held in 1471 appears this: 
" And the favorite of a King of England, Sir John Langstrother, 
having died Grand Commander of Cyprus, the dignity was con- 
ferred on another." ^ 

In Hall's " Chronicle " is told the part that Sir John played 
in the War of Roses, and the manner of his death in 1471. Henry 
VI., of the house of Lancaster, a weak and imbecile king, had for 
over ten years been contesting his hold upon the crown with the

house of York, whose leader for the greater part of the war was 
Edward, Duke of York, afterwards Edward IV. Henry's cause 
was upheld with far more courage and skill by his queen than 
by himself; she it was who led armies and planned manoeuvres. 
At the time of the battle of Tewkesbury, Henry VI. was a prisoner 
in the Tower of London, and shortly afterwards he mysteriously 
died. 

" When Queue Margarete saw, that to bid battaill was to no 
purpose, and in maner, in dispaire, of the wealth of her selfe and 
her Sonne : she with the Prince and her compaignie departed to a 
Sainctuary there by, called Beauliew in Hampshire and registered 
herself and hers, as presenes there priueleged. When it was 
knowen that she was landed, Edmond Duke of Somerset, with 
lord Ihon his brother, Thomas Courtney, erle of Deuonshire, Jas- 
per erle of Pembroke, Ihon Lorde Wenlocke and Ihon Long- 
strother. Prior of sainct Ihones in England, came in great hast 
to Beauliew and presented theimselfes to the Queue. Although 
that she wer almost drouned in sorowe, and plunged in pein yet 
when she saw and beheld these noble and princely personages, 
to resort unto her presence, she was somewhat comforted, and 
greatly reuiued again." Queen Margaret went to Bath, while 
the above-named leaders started out to raise troops. King Ed- 
ward IV., hearing of her arrival, sent out men to discover her 
whereabouts and the strength of her force. The Queen, hearing 
that Edward was near situated at Tewkesbury, and that he was 
following her, determined to fly to Wales to the Earl of Pem- 
broke. But " the duke of Somerset determined there to tarrye 
and to take such fortune as God should sende. He trenched his 
campe round about and marshalled his host in this manner; he 
and the lord Ihon of Somerset his brother led the forward ; The 
middelward was gouerned by the Prince under the coduyte of the 
lord of saincte Ihons and Lord Wenlocke. The rereward was 
put in the rule of the erle of Deuonshire." The battle turned out

ahnost al to wrecke, for the most part were slayne. The Quene 
was fonde in her chariot almost dead for sorowe, ye prince was 
apprehended and kepte close by syr Rychard Croftes ; the duke 
of Somerset and the lord Prior of saincte Ihons were by force 
taken prisoners and many other also. 

" In the felde and chase were slaine lord Ihon of Somerset,

A somewhat more detailed account of the execution is found 
in Holinshed's " Chronicle " : " There were found in the abbeie 
and other places of the towne, Edmund duke of Summerset, lohn 
Lonstrother lord prior of S. lohn, sir Thomas Tresham, sir 
Gerueis Clifton, and diuerse other knights and esquiers, which 
were apprehended, and all of them being brought before the duke 
of Glocester, sitting as constable of England, and the duke of

Strickland's " Queens of England " speaks of him as " that 
military monk, the prior of St. John's," and says that he was called 
the treasurer of England.^ 

Sir John Longstrother stands forth again on the pages of his- 
tory in a contemporary record, where another of the name is also 
found. One of the Paston Letters, written about 1460, gives an 
account of the abduction of Jane, daughter of Edmund of Wick- 
ingham, by a Robert Longstrother, who seems not to have be- 
haved in very knightly fashion. 

" Thes be provis that Jane Boys was ravischid ageyn her will. 
One is that she, the tyme of her taking, whan she was set upon 
her hors, she revyled Lancasterother and callid hym knave, and 
wept and kryid oute upon him pitewly to her. 

" Item, Lancasterotherys prest of the Egle in Lyncolne shire 
wheche shrofT her, seid that she told him in confession that she 
wold never be weddyd to him, to deye for it; and that the same 
prest seid he wold not wedde hem togedyr for M^ li. 

" Item, she sent divers tokens of massage to Sothwell, whech 
previth welle at that time she lovyd not Lancasterother." 

She, however, married him, and Boys was her second hus- 
band. - 

Letter 671 of the Paston Letters, dated May 4, 147 1, gives a 
list of the important fatalities at the Battle of Tewkesbury — first, 
" Ded in the Feld ; " next, " Thes be men that wer heveded. The 
Duke of Somerset, The Lord of Sent Jones," and sixteen more. 

Tewkesbury is not the only battle in which the name Long- 
streth is on record. Speight says ^ that the name Tennant occurs 
in the list of those who attended Lord Clifford at the Battle of 
Flodden in 15 13, from Langstroth Dale, and in the same battle,

William Langstrothe carried a bow and Adam Langstrothe, a 
bill. 

As it was the custom for all knights to display armorial bear- 
ings, it is possible that the Longstreth coat-of-arms was borne by 
Sir John Longstrother, but no record has been found in proof of 
this. In Burke's " General Armory of England " the arms are 
given : " Longstoder or Longstrother. A chevron gules between 
three escalop shells sable." ^ The crest, which is two roses, white 
and red, intertwined, is, according to the Heralds' College, a mod- 
ern unauthorized addition, there being no record of them as per- 
taining to the shield. 

The chief interest in a coat-of-arms, however, is to know 
who first bore it, and whether the present Longstreth family has 
any claim to its use. To settle these questions, inquiry was made 
at the College of Arms by Horace J. Smith in 1884, and their re- 
sponse is given in full :

My dear Sir 
The Longstrother arms of which you have an impression on your 
seal are argent a chevron gules between 3 escallops sable. The Long- 
strothers were a North of England family, a branch of which settled, 
in the fourteenth century, near Taunton in Somersetshire. 

No descendants have however been recognized by the Heralds since 
the reign of King Henry VIH, and it was generally understood that 
this race had become extinct. 
I am Sir 

Yours V. truly

Body of Heraldry." Joseph Edmondson, London, 1780. Also in Vol. II., " An 
Alphabet of Anna." 



32 The Longstreth Family Records. 

Tradition says that when Joshua Longstreth (3-63) was in 
England in 1835, he visited the Heralds' College, and found the 
record of the Longstreth coat-of-arms. The line of family hav- 
ing become extinct in England, the right to its use was granted 
by the College of Arms to the line of the family in America ; a 
seal bearing the coat-of-arms which he had cut in London has 
served as the copy for subsequent dies. 

No record is yet known which tells to whom the coat-of- 
arms was granted, nor proves the American Longstreths to be 
descended from those who were entitled to bear the escutcheon. 
Nor is it certainly known that Sir John Longstrother was of the 
same ancestry as the Yorkshire Longstreths ; the only authority 
on which this belief rests is the statement of Whitaker, that Long- 
streth Dale probably gave birth to Sir John Longstrother, and 
that the Longstroths of that Dale were probably his immediate 
relatives. But the gap between the mediaeval Longstroths and 
the present family has not been spanned by any bridge of records. 

The American Longstreths may be collateral descendants in 
this same family, but whatever right they have to armorial bear- 
ings rests solely on the permission granted, according to tradition, 
to Joshua Longstreth, as they have not, according to the require- 
ment of heraldry, established a pedigree at the College of Arms. 



The Longstreth family of Philadelphia trace their descent 
from one ancestor, Bartholomew Longstreth, who emigrated from 
Yorkshire in 1699. There is no doubt, however, that collateral 
relatives of the same name are living, who are the descendants 
of Martin Longstreth, a brother or cousin of Bartholomew, who 
came to America and died about 1727. This Martin was by trade 
a brazier, and occasionally travelled about the country in pursuit 
of trade; he was familiarly known as "the long tinker," being 
'* said to have been seven feet two and a half inches in height."

The Longstreth Family. 33 

He had a daughter Elizabeth who married Francis Littlejohn, 
and died near Philadelphia in 1753, leaving eight children; he had 
also a son who signed himself Bartholomew Longstreth, Junr., 
who in 1769 lived a hundred and fifty miles west of Philadelphia, 
and had five children. 

Some of Martin Longstreth's descendants moved to Virginia. 
Daniel Longstreth (4-48) great-grandson of Bartholomew, from 
whose extensive memoranda much of the material for this Record 
is gleaned, writes: "Uncle Isaac (3-10) told me that as the Vir- 
ginia troops passed through here on their way to New York, two 
of them of the name of Longstreth called at Grandfather's, and 
that again about 1780 one of them on his return towards his 
home spent several days with the family. His brother, as Uncle 
understood, married and settled in the upper part of New Jersey." 

Besides this Martin, there may have been one other of the 
Longstreth name who came to America, as Daniel Longstreth 
mentions that he had " often heard that Bartholomew Longstreth 
had a brother Philip." 

Probable descendants of Martin Longstreth are living in 
Ohio and farther west. In the search for members of the family, 
correspondence was opened with Philip W. Longstreth, Gratiot, 
O. ; W. C. Longstreth, Lancaster, O., and Mrs. Mary Rannells, 
New Plymouth, O., daughter of G. W, Longstreth. From these 
it was learned that a Philip Longstreth was born in Cambria 
County, Pa., in 1779, and a Michael Longstreth born in Pennsyl- 
vania in 1789; these moved to Ohio early in the nineteenth cen- 
tury, and no names of their ancestry were known. The name 
Bartholomew occurs more than once among their family records, 
which would suggest the probability of their descent from 
Bartholomew, Jr., son of Martin. In the publication, " Heads of 
Families, First Census, 1790," are given the names of two Mar- 
ton Longstrechs, John, James, and Philip Longstrech, in Bedford 
County. It is not unlikely that these were sons or grand-sons of 



34 The Longstreth Family Records. 

Bartholomew, Jr., but as no records have been found to estabUsh 
this point, the idea, once entertained, of collecting the records of 
this branch of Longstreth name, has been abandoned. 

Therefore the term, Longstreth family, as used throughout 
this Record is to be understood in a restricted sense, referring 
only to Bartholomew Longstreth and his descendants.^ 



* The searcher into family history must not be confused by the name Long- 
street, not uncommon in New Jersey records: — Ann Longstreet, daughter of 
Derrick, is baptized in 1748; Ann, Elizabeth, Elsse, Catharine and Samuel 
Longstreit are witnesses at the marriage of Joseph Hahurst at Manasquan, 
1767; Abigail Longstreet is witness at the marriage of Thomas Woolley, Jr., in 
Shrewsbury, in 1746. She was the wife of Christopher Longstreet, married in 
1743; they were ancestors of General James Longstreet, of the Confederate 
Army. In Salter's " History of Monmouth and Ocean Counties, N. J.," is 
found frequent mention of Longstreets, the earliest date given being a pur- 
chase of land by Stoffel [Theophilus] Longstreet in 1698. Elias, Aaron, and 
Gilbert Longstreet were captains in the Revolution. This family came from 
Holland, and settled in Connecticut, later moving to New Jersey. 



FIRST GENERATION 



"He only deserves to be remembered by posterity who treasures up and preserves 
the history of his ancestors." — Burke. 



1. BARTHOLOMEW LONGSTRETH, b. Oct. 24, 1679, 
in Yorkshire, England; d. August 8, 1749, in Warminster Town- 
ship, Bucks County, Pa.; m. at Horsham Meeting, Feb. 5 ( ?), 
1727-8, Ann Dazvson, daughter of John and Dorothy Dawson, b. 
1705, in London, d. March 18, 1783, at Phoenixville. 

Bartholomew Longstreth ^ was born in Longstroth Dale, 
Deanery of Craven, Yorkshire, England. According to tradition, 
his father's name was Christopher. At the christening of 
Bartholomew, it is said that his father and godfather could not 
agree upon a name, so the priest christened him by the name of 
the saint on whose day he was born. He emigrated from York- 
shire in 1699, taking with him a letter from Settle Meeting in 
that county to the Friends in Pennsylvania, certifying to such 
facts as would commend him to the confidence and fellowship of 
the brethren among whom he expected to live — a practice still 
in use in the Society on the removal of members. ^ This com- 

' The name in old records is variously written Longstroth, Langatreth, 
Langsteroth, etc.; it was written by Bartholomew himself in his family Bible, 
Longstreth, and this spelling, being now the accepted one, has been used 
throughout this Record. 

^ "Whereas, Bartholomew Langsteroth having acquainted us how he doth 
intend to remove himself into Pennsylvania in America, if the Lord give him 
ability, there to live among Friends, and we, having taken care to inquire, do 
certify you, our friends and brethren, whom it may concern, how that he hath 
obtained and discharged his business and affairs so that he doth thereby give 
no just occasion to any person to reflect upon him, and further that the said 
Bartholomew Langsteroth is clear from anj"^ engagements or entanglements 
with any person on the account of marriage, so that so far as Ave know if he 
hereafter be concerned in order to marry, this may certify our friends that 
may be therein concerned accordingly that as he hath been of a pretty good 



36 The Longstretii Family Records. 

mendation and confidence his after life in America fully justified. 
In 1700, when he had been in the country so short a time, and 
when he had scarcely reached his majority, he joined in a petition 
to the king, signed by most of the leading men in Pennsylvania, 
which prayed that William Penn should not be deprived of his 
governorship of the province.^ This shows that althougJi young, 
Bartholomew Longstrcth was recognized as a man of character. 

Tradition says that he left home at the age of twelve to seek 
his fortune, with only five shillings in his pocket. However this 
may be, it is certain that for some years before coming to America 
he had been in the employ of a grazier or stock farmer, in whose 
service he had proved himself discreet and trustworthy. - After 
his arrival in Pennsylvania he was employed upon a farm, till, by 
thriftiness he had laid up about £400. One-half of this he ven- 
tured in a trading voyage to Tortola, one of the Virgin Tsles, West 
Indies, noted then, as now, for its exports of sugar, molasses, 
rum, etc., and also for its unhealthy climate. He fortunately 

behavior since the time that lie hath frequented our meetings, so his removing 
is %vith ours as also with his father's consent and approbation, and if the Lord 
lengthen out his days that he get to the end of his intended journey, you may 
receive him as one whom the Lord in his love hath visited and reached unto 
in mercy, and it is our fervent desire and prayer to God for him that he may 
proceed in faithfulness that those blessings may be continued to him to the 
end of his days. So, with the salutation of love in Jesus Christ our I^ord and 
Savior, we rest and remain your brethren in the fellowship of the Gospel of 
Grace. 

From our montlily meeting at Settle, in Yorkshire, in old England, the 
first day of the first month, 1698-9. 

[Signed by twenty friends.] 

' Penn's second visit to America was made in 1699. Not long after his 
arrival he learned that there was a measure before the House of Tjords for 
bringing all the proprietary governments in the colonies under the Crown; he 
returned to England in 1701, intending to oppose this measure, probably taking 
with him the petition above referred to. It was never presented to the king, 
however; as, before his arrival, all danger of his removal as proprietary gov- 
ernor had passed. The original petition is now in the Historical Society of 
Pennsylvania. 

' A somewhat different account of the Longstreth family and Bartholomew 
Longstreth has come down through the descendants of Isaac Longstreth 
(2-9). "John Moss, a Scotchman, moved into Yorkshire, and Stroth being 
the English of Moss, he was called John Stroth. In the War of the Roses he

sailed for Tortola in another vessel than the one to which he in- 
trusted his cargo, for, as the ship was never heard from again, it 
is supposed to have foundered. On arriving at the island, he fell 
sick of the prevalent fever, which almost proved fatal. Having 
recovered, he returned to Pennsylvania, where he again obtained 
work as a farmer to repair his fortune. After a time he bought a 
tract of three hundred acres of land in Moreland Township, 
then in Philadelphia County, now in Montgomery. ^ 

" Bartholomew Longstreth first settled on the [present] 
county line between Philadelphia and Montgomery Counties. . . . 
It was on Edge Hill. The house was a long stone building." — 
Letter of Anna T. Raab, iS/S- He commenced to improve the 
land, but becoming dissatisfied, he sold it, and determined to re- 
turn to England. A certificate was granted him by Middletown 
Meeting, bearing date of 3 mo. 2, 1706, " to whatever meeting he 
is likely to belong to." This is probably the time when he first 
decided upon returning, though a long time intervened before 
his preparing to take the final step. 

The Longstreth family in America owes its existence to the 
fact that this final step was never accomplished. While waiting 
in Philadelphia for the opportunity to take passage for England, 
he met with Thomas Fairman, surveyor-general of the province 
of Pennsylvania, who induced him to give up his intention of leav- 
ing the country, and instead, to buy five hundred acres of unim- 
proved land in Warminster Township, Bucks County. This tract 
of land was deeded by William Penn to John Dwight in 1685, and 

commanded a troop of horse, under the Duke of York, and at the end of the 
war he was rewarded for his services by a tract of land nearly twelve miles 
long and between three and four Avide, called Long Dale; the name was then 
changed to Longstroth Dale, which it bears to this day. The family were 
Presbyterians. Bartholomew Longstreth was born in Longstroth Dale, 1679. 
He turned Quaker, for which his father disinherited him; but, Bartholomew 
complaining that it was hard to be turned away penniless, his father gave him 
a herd of cattle, (he being a large grazier,) which he drove to London, about 
two hundred miles, and sold. He then sailed to America." 

^ Montgomery County was erected out of Philadelphia County in 1784.

by Dwight's heirs to John Talbot in 1707, and by him to Thomas 
Fairman in 1709. The deed of Thomas Fairman to Bartholomew 
Longstreth is dated December 23, 1710. For this tract he paid 
£175 Pennsylvania currency, or seven shillings per acre. In 1713 
he purchased from the proprietary agents, Richard Hill, Isaac 
Norris and James Logan, twenty-six acres adjoining for £6. los., 
or five shillings per acre. From time to time he purchased other 
tracts of land in the neighborhood, and at his death he left a large 
and valuable estate, including more than one thousand acres of 
land and moneys at interest. 

When he first settled in Warminster, the land he had there 
taken up was a wilderness, the only road being a cattle-path 
through the woods. His first house was of logs. In 1713 he built 
a more substantial house of stone ; the spring-house, still standing 
in 1908, was probably built also at this time. The picture of the 
old homestead, taken in 1872, shows in the centre the house built 
by Bartholomew Longstreth ; it is flanked by a small and a larger 
addition built at dififerent times by his son Daniel, to whom he 
willed the house and farm. 

In 1728 Bartholomew Longstreth married Ann Dawson, 
daughter of John and Dorothy Dawson, of Hatborough, Moreland 
Township. Ann Dawson, as she told her grandson, Isaac Long- 
streth (3-10), was born in London and was five years old when 
she came with her parents to America in 1710. Her father was a 
hatter, who, having been unfortunate in business, emigrated to 
Pennsylvania. He and his wife were connected with the Society 
of Friends in England. She united with Abington Monthly 
Meeting many years before her hwsband, as he " being come from 
old England without a certificate, by reason of some debts left un- 
paid " could not be received into membership. A letter was sent 
to some of his creditors by a committee of the meeting " to see if 
they are willing to forgive ye debt; " 4 mo. 29, 1730, John Daw- 



First Generation. 39 

son produced a certificate from Friends of Horsleydown Monthly 
Meeting in London, which was read and accepted. ^ 

John Dawson was the original settler of Crooked Billet, 
afterwards, because of his trade, named Hatborough, where he 
carried on his business. Here he built one of the first stone 
houses, and kept a house of private entertainment which had as 
a sign a hewn crooked billet of wood ; hence the name given to the 
village. - " His hatter's tools were brought up to Abington in a 
lime wagon. Thence he set out into the woods, and for several 
miles had to open a road with axe and spade for his horse and 
cart to pass along." — Longstreth MSS. Daniel Longstreth writes 
in 183 1 " It would appear from some of my inquiries respecting 
the early settlement of Hatborough, that our ancestor, John Daw- 
son, had lived in three different houses on as many sites. The 
first was built of logs, in the rear of a house now standing nearly 
opposite to the end of the new road at the Upper Tavern on the 
west side of York Road. . . . The second house . . . was of 
stone ... its site opposite to Mordecai Thomas' hip-roofed 
house. It was on the east side of York Road, and was the 
original " Crooked Billet " tavern. My great-grandmother, 
Ann Dawson, was mason-tender, and carried the mortar on a 
board, and the stones in her apron, whilst her father executed the 
masonry. . . . His last and third residence was in the east end 
of the old stone house on the west side of York Road, between 
the old tavern and the creek. . . . Like the others it was origi- 
nally but one story high, and now exhibits on the front, on the 
south side of the door, the initials I. D. D. — 1745." If these ini- 
tials, however, meant John and Dorothy Dawson, the date could 
not have been cut at the same time, as John Dawson was living in

ciety of Pennsylvania," Vol. VI , p. 189.

Philadelphia in 1740, and died there 11 mo. 27, 1742, at the 
corner of Second Street and Church Alley, in the fifth brick house 
built in the city. ^ The house was occupied by some of his de- 
scendants till many years after the Revolution. 

After his death his widow seems to have returned to the 
neighborhood of their former home. Some years later she went 
to live with her daughter Ann near Phoenixville, Chester County, 
where she died. " Whilst on her death bed hearing that water 
frequently rose in the graves at Providence, she requested that 
they ' would not drown her after she was dead,' but take her 
corpse to Pikeland, which was just established. She was the first 
one interred in that grave yard, and her granddaughter, Elizabeth 
.Starr, wife of Joseph Starr, planted an apple tree at the head of 
her grave, which blew down a few years since, and the place is 
now supplied by a Lombardy Poplar." — Daniel Longstreth, 1S31. 
The poplar tree also was gone in 1845. 

The family Bible states that she was buried at Pikeland be- 
cause the river Schuylkill was too high to cross over to the bury- 
ing-ground of Providence Meeting. 

The exact day of the marriage of Bartholomew Longstreth 
and Ann Dawson is not known, because there is no record of when 
the marriage was actually accomplished. The Abington Meeting 
Records state as follows : " At our monthly meeting held ye 29th 
of ye nth mo., 1727. Whereas Bartholomew Longstreth and 
Ann Dawson having declared their intentions of marriage with 
each other before two monthly meetings, enquiry being made by 

' " Our ancestor, John Dawson, a free mason, and founder of Hatborough. 
removed to Philadelphia and died at the cornei' of Church Alley and Second 
Street in the house which John F. Watson, in his " Annals of Philadelphia," 
says was the first brick house built in the city. The city regulation mark was 
always on this house."— Daniel Longstreth to Susanna Tjongstreth, 12 mo. 
mo. 17, 1831. See Watson's " Annals," Vol. TIT., p. 99. This would seem to 
be a mistake, as the first brick houses built were the Blue Anchor Tavern and 
the houses adjoining at Front and Dock Streets; which were building at the 
time of William Penn's arrival, 1682. This statement of its being tlie first 
brick house in Philadelphia is contradicted by Watson himself in the " An- 
nals," Vol. III., p. 52.

persons appointed, and found clear of all others on account of 
marriage, are left to accomplish ye same orderly," On the 26th 
of I2th mo., 1727, the next monthly meeting, the marriage of 
Bartholomew and Ann was reported to have been " orderly per- 
formed." It is probable that, according to custom, the marriage 
took place at the weekday meeting next after the monthly meet- 
ing which granted permission for the marriage, which would be 
I2th mo. 5, 1727-8. ^ 

It is a tradition that the marriage of Bartholomew Long- 
streth was the result of love at first sight, under circumstances 
which, if not exactly romantic, well befitted those homespun times, 
and are indicative of the practical kind of attractions that were 
then most powerful. While Ann Dawson was helping her father 
in building his house, as told above, Bartholomew Longstreth, 
passing by, " was smitten with her glowing charms and filial piety, 
and then and there chose his wife." This ardor may have been 
true so far as he was concerned, but according to another story, 
also traditional, the favorable impression was certainly not 
mutual ; the difference of some twenty-five years in their ages is 
to be remembered. " Previous to their marriage she, when hav- 
ing her fortune alphabetically tried, said : ' I care not who knows 
the initials that turned up for me, for they were B. L. That 
would stand for old Bartholomew Longstreth, and I am sure I 

' The dates as given Iiere and elsewhere, when the months are given by 
numbers, are set ilown just as they appear in the old records. Until January, 
n^3, the Julian calendar was followed, and the numbers of the months do not 
correspond to present usage. According to " old style," the year began March 
2.'jth; March was the first month, while January was the eleventh, and Feb- 
ruary the twelfth. It was usual to write both the old and the new year in 
giving dates in these three months. 

In 1751, the English Parliament passed the Calendar Amendment Act, es- 
tablishing January 1st as the beginning of each year, and canceling the then 
existing excess of eleven days by making the 3d of September the 14th, in 
1752, and calling the succeeding January, the first month, 1753. The excess 
of days was due to the fact that the calendar as established by Julius Caesar 
fixed the length of the year at 3651/4 days; this average year being too long by 
a few minutes, tiie error was rectified by Pope Gregory XIII. in 1582. The 
Julian calendar is still retained in Russia and Greece, whose dates, conse- 
quently, are now twelve days in arrears of other Christian countries.

never will have him." — Account accompanying a family tree pos- 
sessed by Alfred Longstreth [5-198]. By some means, however, 
she was brought to change her mind, for have him she did. 

They were married, probably Feb. 5, 1727-8, at Horsham 
meeting house, to which she rode on a pillion behind her father, 
returning from it behind her husband in the same way. A tradi- 
tion, suggestive, if not veracious, says that while she was talking 
with her young friends after the marriage, Bartholomew became 
somewhat impatient to take his bride home, and summoned her 
in his broad Yorkshire tongue with the question, " A-ann, art 
thou gooing. oor art thou noot ?" She quickly jumped on the 
pillion behind him, and they started the horse on a full run under 
the whip for four miles, keeping the lead of the rest of the party. 

Ann was a thrifty housekeeper and a good manager, and 
also showed ability in the line of trade. She opened a store for 
the accommodation of the neighborhood, for this purpose bor- 
rowing a small sum of money from her husband as her original 
capital, with which she bought goods in Philadelphia. Her 
stock was gradually increased and her business extended, so that 
customers were attracted from Wrightstown and other distant 
places. The business continued to prosper until increasing family 
cares forced her to give it up. " On closing her accounts and re- 
funding the original loan with interest, there was a balance of 
£600 in her favor." — Longstreth MSS. 

According to the custom of the times, to w^hich there were 
few exceptions, the Longstreth household employed slave labor, 
both in the field and in the house. Some of the family can re- 
member seeing at the old homestead on the wall between the sit- 
ting-room and the kitchen a square mark showing where an open- 
ing had been plastered over. This was once a small window 
through which Ann, sitting by the fireplace in the living-room, 
could watch her slave women at work in the kitchen. 



First Generation. 43 

The Friends, however, were among the first to feel the in- 
iquity of slavery, and the Society at a very early day made the 
holding of slaves a subject of discipline, and, when persisted in, 
a ground of disownment. It is said that Ann Longstreth had a 
slave Solomon in her possession, for whom she executed a paper 
of manumission dated 7 mo. 7, 1775, " she feeling a disposition 
of mind to do upright and impartial justice to all men." Many 
men and women of Longstreth descent were conspicuous for 
their support of the Anti-Slavery movement and for their zeal in 
the work of the " Underground Railway." 

Bartholomew Longstreth was held in good esteem among 
Friends, and was active in the affairs of the meeting; he was ap- 
pointed 5 mo. 30, 1733, by Abington meeting to attend the quar- 
terly meeting as a representative. He was also frequently called 
on to settle estates and to transact public affairs ; as supervisor of 
Warm.inster Township he opened York Road from the County 
Line to Hartville and down to Hatboro. He was charitable to the 
poor, who never, it is said, left his door empty-handed. He was, 
moreover, a man of great firmness of purpose, strength of mind 
and energy of character. 

He died suddenly of apoplexy, without previous illness. His 
son Daniel, in a letter written to friends in England in 1752, gives 
this account of his father's death : " I now think proper to give a 
short relation of my father's death. The eighth day of August, 
1749, he went into the field to set the negroes to plowing, and stay 
with them till about eight o'clock, and finding himself much out 
of order he left them and went to a school-house which was built 
in our field, and sent my sister home for me to take a horse for 
him to ride on. Accordingly I did, and he went to a stump, got 
upon it with help, and so upon the horse, and I got on behind him. 
When we rode about thirty perches he fell back into my arms. 
There being two men riding a distance before us, I called to them, 



44 The Longstreth Family Records. 

and they rode back quickly. One of them took him down from 
me in the road, and he took about four or five breaths, and died 
away, being sensible to the very last." 

He left to his wife the entire income of all his landed prop- 
erty until his sons should respectively come of age. Each was 
then to receive his share of the estate with the exception of Dan- 
iel. His share, which included the homestead, was to remain in 
her hands until he should reach the age of twenty-five ; after this, 
he was to give her £6 annually during her life or widowhood. — 
Daniel Longstreth, i8ji. 

Bartholomew Longstreth was buried in Horsham grave- 
yard. " A clouded marble slab was placed at his head by his son 
Daniel, with ' 1749 — Bartholomew Longstreth, aged 69 years, 11 
mo. 15 days ' on it. Some years after, an uneasiness being ex- 
pressed by some of the members of the meeting with this stone, 
an attempt was made to remove it, but Daniel Longstreth re- 
plied, ' not while I live shall any one disturb it.' It remains there 
to this day." — Daniel Longstreth, iS^i. And there it still re- 
mains, the soft marble so weather-worn that the inscription is 
scarcely legible. 

The grave is in the row nearest the wall along the Easton 
Road, which runs between the meeting house and the burying 
ground, and here beside him representatives of five generations 
of his descendants have been laid to rest. Most of the graves are 
now marked by marble stones of recent erection, set at the foot to 
perpetuate names and dates almost worn away on the original 
stones. 

After remaining a widow nearly four years, Ann Longstreth 
married, 6 mo. 7, 1753, Robert Tomkins, yeoman, of Warrington, 
Bucks County. They " passed meeting " at Abington Monthly 
Meeting, 4 mo. 30, 1753. appearing the first time at the same meet- 
ing when her son Daniel and Grace Michener appeared the second 
time, and were married at Horsham Meeting. Ann's mother.

" Dorothy Dawson, widow," signed her name at the head of the list 
of witnesses on the marriage certificate. A part of Ann's attrac- 
tions for this second suitor has always been credited to her for- 
tune ; an inventory of her estate taken 2 mo. i, 1753, shows that 
after deducting all claims it amounted to nearly £2,000, including 
servants valued at £100. As none of her sons was yet of age, ac- 
cording to the terms of Bartholomew Longstreth's will, to receive 
his share of the income of the landed property, her means were 
large for that day. 

This second marriage was not a happy one ; her husband is 
said to have wasted her fortune and to have subjected her to per- 
sonal ill usage so that she left him, and went back to the old home- 
stead. " She returned to Daniel Longstreth with what an ox-cart 
could hold, together with herself and a black man whilst her hus- 
band was from home." — Daniel Longstreth, 18^1. 

From there she went to live in Charlestown, now Phuenixville, 
in Chester County, where her daughters Jane and Ann Coates 
lived. Here she built a house for herself " on the hill by Mason's 
tavern," and her mother, Dorothy Dawson, lived with her. She 
continued here till 1775, when, on the death of Daniel Long- 
streth's first wife, she returned to his house and lived with him 
until his second marriage. She then went back to Chester 
County, where she died, March 18, 1783, aged seventy-eight, and 
was buried in Pikeland burying ground, being the second to be 
interred there. 

" Both Dorothy Dawson and Ann Dawson Longstreth lie 
buried in a neglected grave yard near Kimberton, Chester County, 
Pa. [belonging to Pikeland monthly meeting]. The graves are 
nameless, as is customary in Quaker burying grounds, and but 
few persons except my sister, Rebecca L. Fussell and myself, are 
left who could identify the spot. This was pointed out to us by 
our mother, Esther Fussell Lewis." — Graceanna Lezvis, i8yj. 
This graveyard no longer merits the term neglected ; it is now

neatly fenced and cared for through the interest of certain of Ann 
Longstreth's descendants. In 1883 Edward Longstreth (5-21 1) 
placed headstones at the graves of Dorothy Dawson and Ann 
Longstreth; these were afterwards removed as memorial stones 
to Horsham Burying-ground. Upon the stone, as also in the let- 
ter quoted above, her name is written, Ann Dawson Longstreth, 
as if seeking to obliterate the memory of her unfortunate second 
marriage. 

Bartholomew and Ann Longstreth had eleven children, as 
recorded in the family Bible, now in the possession of Samuel N. 
Longstreth (5-594), the entries being in the handwriting of 
Bartholomew and Ann. ^ Their dates of birth are also given in a 
letter written March 20, 1752, by Daniel Longstreth (2-3) to his 
•' loving cousins " in England, in which he says that his " parents 
had eleven children as followeth : Sarah was born January ye 8th, 
1728-9, John was born June ye loth. 1730, and lived till he was 
seven years old, Daniel, born April ye 28th, 1732, Jane, born 
March ye i8th, 1733-4, died i year and 8 months, Jane, born Jan- 
uary ye 23d, 1735-6, Ann, born January ye 3d, 1737-8, John born 
October ye 25th, 1739, Elizabeth, born May ye 15th, 1741, Isaac, 
born February ye i6th, 1742-3, Joseph, born Dec. ye nth, 1744, 
Benjamin born Sept. ye 17th, 1749-" These dates agree with the 
dates as given below ("Old Style") with the exception of the 
last. In the original draft of the letter it appears that 1746 was 
written; these figures were crossed out and 1/49 inserted by 
another hand. The authority followed is that of the Bible, where 
the date, in the handwriting of Bartholomew Longstreth, is 1746. 

'This Bible has the imprint, "Oxford, 1727; " the first entries are in the 
handwriting of Bartholomew and Ann Longstreth. The later entries are made 
upon the back of the leaves bearing illustrations, with which the book is 
copiously provided. The Bible descended to Benjamin Longstreth (2-11), al- 
though unfortunately the dates of neither his marriage nor his death are re- 
corded; from him it passed to his oldest son, Joseph (3-70), then to Joseph s 
oldest son, Thomas B. Longstreth (4-173), and it is now in possession of his 
oldest son, Samuel N. Longstreth. Each successive owner has recorded in it 
the births of his children, and in some cases, the deaths also.

* Solomon Fussell, son of William and Elizabeth Fussell, was born in 
Yorkshire, England, 1704, emigrated to Pennsylvania and settled in Philadel- 
phia about 1721; he was a chairmaker by trade, and had his shop in Second 
Street. His brother, Benjamin, emigrated several years later, came also to 
Philadelphia, chanced to see the sign over Solomon's door, and, entering, 
found that it was his brother. Benjaniin went to live in Delaware. 

Solomon Fussell married, first, Susanna Coney, daughter of Jacob and 
Barbara Coney, and granddaughter of William Clinkenbeard, who died about 
1753 in his one hundred and fourth year. Besides their son William, who mar- 
ried Sarah Longstreth, Solomon and Susanna Fussell had a daughter Elizabeth, 
who married Benjamin Dawson, brother of Ann, wife of Bartholomew Long- 
streth. (2-6 in the " Dawson Family Record.") Of Elizabeth Dawson the 
story is told that at the birth of her daughter Susanna, in 1746, William Chn- 
kenbeard, said to his daughter, Barbara Coney, " Arise daughter, go see thy 
daughter, for thy daughter's daughter hath a daughter." — From record pos- 
sessed by Martha M. Lewis (5-44).

22, 1753, Grace Michener, daughter of John and Martha 
(Harker) Michener, ^ b. May 22, 1729, in Moreland Township; d. 
at the Homestead, April 16, 1775. 

Daniel Longstreth was born in the old Homestead which was 
his home throughout his life. He was only seventeen years old 
when his father died, leaving him the care of the large family of 
brothers and sisters, to whom he supplied, as far as possible, a 
father's place, fulfilling his trust with good judgment and strict 
fidelity. He was a man of fine presence and great firmness of 
mind ; a Friend in principle as well as by profession ; a peace- 
maker, often being called upon to settle differences arising be- 
tween his neighbors ; a man of benevolent and sympathetic na- 
ture, interesting himself in behalf of the poor and friendless ; a 
man of integrity, possessing the public confidence, being often 
selected to act as executor and administrator of estates. He was 
at one time collector of the Provincial tax, and was otherwise 
active in public affairs. His original commission as collector of 
revenue, has been deposited by John L. Longstreth with the His- 
torical Society of Pennsylvania. 

He inherited slaves with his father's estate, and probably em- 
ployed slave labor the greater part of his life. Anna T. Raab 
(4-49) writes " Grandfather had a burying ground for slaves 
alongside of a lane running from the barn near the chestnut tree 
along Jesse Cleaver's lane. When I was small, father [Joseph 
Longstreth, 3-1 1] took the fence away and ploughed down the 

^ John Michener was the son of John and Sarah Michener, who were liv- 
ing in Philadelphia as early as 1686, and moved to Abington in 1715. Besides 
their son John, they had two other sons, William and Thomas. William 
Michener married Mary Kuster, and had a son Mordecai, b. March 30, 1723; 
d. Sept. 25, 1795, who married Sarah, daughter of John and Elizabeth Fisher, 
b. April 11, 1722. Mordecai and Sarah Michener had a son John, who mar- 
ried Martha Longstreth (3-6). 

John Michener, the emigrant, was a descendant of one of William the Con- 
queror's soldiers. 

Martha Harker was the daughter of Adam and Grace Harker, who came 
to Bucks County, Pa., in 1699, bringing a certificate from the Richmond 
Monthly Meeting of Friends at Lebume, Yorkshire, England, dated 12 mo. 10, 
1698.

graves." But later in life he seems to have felt the same concern 
in regard to slave-holding as did his mother, and must have freed 
his slaves, for he became a member of the Pennsylvania Society 
for the Abolition of Slavery, his certificate of membership being 
dated 3 mo. 25, 1793. 

He adhered to peace principles during the Revolutionary 
War, notwithstanding the difficulty of his position in being so 
near the patriot camp at Valley Forge. He vv^as sometimes sum- 
moned to headquarters, but always received respectful treatment 
from the commanding officers. It is said that he gave straw for 
beds for the troops in the terrible winter weather they had to en- 
dure. A company of soldiers was at one time quartered upon 
him, and the skirmish of Crooked Billet was fought almost at his 
door. 

A sketch of the battle-ground and an account of the event 
from a personal aspect are found among the memoranda of Dan- 
iel Longstreth, his grandson. 

" The refugees [British] were very cruel and gave no quar- 
ter. An English officer had his thigh broken by our gate and 
two soldiers were sent for a blanket to sling him between horses ; 
they began to plunder, and an officer being sent after them, he 
took grandfather up the lane to reclaim his goods ; then the officer 
went on, as the battle was raging. Three refugees came riding 
down, and one of them coming up to grandfather says, ' Give me 
your silver buckles.' ' I cannot spare them.' Then dismounting to 
take them ofT, grandfather runs to the lane fence ; the fellow, re- 
gaining his seat, rode after and pushed him against the fence 
with the point of his sword, told him he would run him through 
instantly. ' I appeal to thy two companions if it is fair to take 
them, as I have no others.' They shamed him so that he rode off 
and left the old man. My father [Joseph Longstreth, 3-1 1] was 
with him. Grandfather had before told his acquaintance, should 
he be attacked no one would rob him. He never could be daunted 
by the fear of man."

The battle of Crooked Billet was fought May i, 1778. 
Washington had placed General John Lacey, a Bucks County 
Friend, to guard the country about Hatboro, and prevent supplies 
being carried to Howe's army in Philadelphia. He took the or- 
dinary precautions against surprise, but his orders were not car-

lane. The loss was not heavy on either side ; General Lacey re- 
ported twenty-six killed, eight or ten wounded, and several taken 
prisoners. The British were charged with extreme cruelty ; Gen- 
eral Lacey wrote to his superior officer : " Many of the unfortun- 
ates who fell into the merciless hands of the British were cruelly 
and inhumanly butchered. Some were set on fire with buckwheat 
straw, and others had their clothes burned on their backs. Some 
of the survivors say they saw the enemy set fire to the wounded 
while they were yet alive, but struggled to put it out, but were 
too weak and expired under the torture. I saw those lying in 
the buckwheat straw ; they made a most melancholy appearance. 
Others I saw who, after being wounded by a ball, had received 
near a dozen wounds with cutlasses and bayonets. I can find as 
many witnesses to the proof of these cruelties as there were peo- 
ple on the spot, and that was no small number who came as spec- 
tators."— G^n(?m/ Lacey to General Armstrong, May 7, 1778. ^ 

Captain Isaac Longstreth, who lived at Hatboro, had com- 
mand of a company in this skirmish. - 

On December 25, 1861, the Hatboro Monument Association 
dedicated an Italian marble shaft to commemorate the battle. 
In course of time, the monument and its surrounding walls fell 
into a delapidated state; but in 1902 they were repaired through 
the generosity of Edward Longstreth (5-21 1), who took a deep 
interest in the historic associations of his place of birth. The 
name, Capt. Isaac Longstreth, is cut on this shaft. 

During the troublous days of the Revolution, the Hatboro 
Library, one of the oldest in the country, was placed for safe- 
keeping in the garret of the Homestead. 

Daniel Longstreth possessed, in marked degree, a trait so 
frequently found in later generations that it might be called a fam-

ily characteristic, — a strong interest in kindred; this he showed 
not only towards his immediate family, but also towards distant 
relatives. He kept up a correspondence with cousins in England 
as late, at least, as 1769. 

The Homestead, as left to him by his father, was twice en- 
larged by Daniel Longstreth. The east end (to the right in the 
frontispiece) was built in 1750, and the west end, which was much 
larger than either of the earlier parts, in 1766. When the last 
addition was completed, having been built by workmen brought 
from Philadelphia, the house was said to be the finest in that part 
of the country. It bore at one end the date stone, inscribed 
^- L. Cr. 1766. Date-stones marked the earlier parts also. At the 
death of Daniel Longstreth in 1803, the homestead descended by 
will to his son Joseph (3-1 1), who died there in 1840, leaving the 
property to his son Daniel (4-48). He died in 1846, and under 
the terms of his will the homestead, which then comprised the 
dwelling, the out-buildings, and fifty-six acres of land, was sold. 
It was bought by his oldest son, John Lancaster Longstreth 
(5-205), of Philadelphia, who held it until 1850, when he sold it 
to Isaac Rush Kirk. The latter died in 1859, leaving the farm 
to his wife and children. 

In 1873 Mrs. Kirk pulled down the older parts of the house, 
those built in 1713 by Bartholomew Longstreth, and in 1750 by 
Daniel, replacing them with a new building. When the wall of 
the east end was pulled down, an old knife, the blade almost worn 
away by much sharpening, was found in the masonry ; it had 
probably slipped from the hand of some workman in the building 
of the house, and falling beyond recovery, had been walled up. 
In the floor was found a copper medal, struck in commemoration 
of the capture of Porto Bello, " with six ships only," by Admiral 
Vernon, November 22, 1739. Both these relics, and also an old 
spoon-mould of unknown date, are in the possession of John 
L. Longstreth. 



54 



The Longstreth Family Records. 



Mrs. Kirk sold the property to her son-in-law, Benjamin 
Wood, who now occupies the house ; it has been completely altered 
in appearance by a coat of plaster laid over the stone work. 
While these changes have made the house much more comfortable 
as a dwelling, they have, in large measure, destroyed its historic 
interest as the birthplace of the Longstreth family.

the parish of Stoak, Cheshire, England. Previous to emigrating in 1682, he se- 
cured six hundred and twenty-five acres in Pennsylvania, which was surveyed 
to him in Nether Providence and Middletown, Chester County. Being a 
Friend, a meeting house was soon erected on his land. 

His son Jacob, born 1685, died 1734, married Sarah Owen, daughter of 
Griffith Owen, and settled on his father's estate in Middletown, in 1707. Their

^ Joseph Starr was a descendant of John Starr, who, according to tradition, 
was son of a captain of infantry in the Parliamentary army during the Civil 
War in England. After the close of the war, John Starr settled in Irelai;d; 
he became a member of the Society of Friends and lived in the Province of 
Ulster. His son, James, bom August 28, 1676, married Paschel Layboume, of 
Black Hadley, Durham, England. He came to Pennsylvania in 1712, and set- 
tled in New Garden. In 1714 he was chosen clerk of Newark, now Kennett, 
Monthly Meeting; upon the establishment of New Garden Monthly Meeting, 
in 1718, he was chosen clerk and served till 1726. In 1731 he moved to Charles- 
town Township, on the site where Phoenixville now stands. — " Biographical

The dates of births here given are found in the records of 
Uwchlan Meeting, but the records are silent regarding marriages, 
and, in most cases, regarding deaths. Search was therefore made 
in the registry of wills for Chester County; and this, while not 
furnishing exact dates, gave some interesting information. 

The will of Joseph Starr, dated 5 mo. 18, 1820, and probated 
October 15, 1821, bequeathes " To my three daughters, Rebecca 
Ramsey, Ann and Amy Starr a lot of land part of that whereon I 
live containing one acre, being the same lot my grand-father 
James Starr devised for a burying ground for the Starr family. 
To my sons Isaac, Joseph and Benjamin $150 each and wearing 
apparel. To William son of Isaac Starr my silver watch. The 
remainder to be divided among my six children before named." 

Of his ten children, therefore, four had died previous to the 
date of the will. Of these, John alone left a will dated 3 mo. 
21, t8ii, and probated April 15, 181 1. He bequeaths — To 
brother Benjamin Starr one-third part of a cow, and certain ar- 
ticles named. To brother-in-law Joseph Ramsey one-third part 
of a cow. To sister Amy $20 and articles named. Remainder to 
niece Elizabeth Ramsey to be paid her at twenty-one. One can- 
not help wondering what became of the other third of the cow 
during the interval ! 

Benjamin Starr died intestate, and letters of administration 
of his estate were granted Rebecca Ramsey, November 15, 1822. 

In " The History of Phoenixville," Hon. S. W. Pennypacker 
says " The next [burying-ground] in respect to its antiquity was 
one at the corner of Main and Church Streets, set apart as a fam- 
ily burying place by James Starr, the earliest settler in Phcenix- 
ville on the south side of the creek. Owning all of the ground 
for a mile about him he could well afford to give one acre to the 
dead, and he probably thought as he separated it from the wilder- 
ness, that in this lonely spot he and his children would rest until 
the final awakening. Alas for the futility of human hopes ! • One

after another of the Starrs passed away without leaving any de- 
scendants to inherit their lands or their name, and ere the last of 
them had been carried to the family yard, the streets of a grow- 
ing and busy town had stretched around and about it. After the 
decline of the race for whom it was intended, it at first met with 
neglect, and then became a kind of Potter's field. Some of the 
Revolutionary soldiers had also been buried here. A few years 
ago an act of Assembly was obtained to untwist the slight knot 
tied by the will of James Starr ; such of the bones as a careless 
search disclosed were thrown together into a box and carted 
away; and now [1872] the finest store in Phoenixville stands on 
the site of the old graveyard." 

A fire-house stands to-day upon the same site. 

The statement in the above quotation that all the Starrs have 
passed away is misleading ; that the family is not extinct is proved 
in the following pages.

Isaac Longstreth was a tanner by trade. According to ac- 
cepted tradition in the family, he was a Captain in the Revolu- 
tionary Army, and commanded a company at the skirmish of 
Crooked Billet, May i, 1778. (See page 51.) This statement 
is made more than once in the Daniel Longstreth manuscripts, and 
as Daniel Longstreth was seventeen years old at the time of Isaac 
Longstreth's death, and lived but a short distance away, he would

TowTiship.

probably have heard the story at first hand. Isaac Longstreth's 
name, with the title Captain, is cut upon the monument commem- 
orative of the battle, erected in Hatboro in 1861. 

But a search of the official records of the war fails to find 
authority for his being a captain. The Custodian of the Public 
Records, Pennsylvania State Library, states : " The only record 
on file in this Department concerning Isaac Longstreth in the 
War of the Revolution is, that he was a Private in Captain Joseph 
Folwell's Company, of the First Battalion, Philadelphia County 
Militia. He acted as a ' Witness ' as appears by his name on 
several Enlistment Papers in 1780. This embodies all the infor- 
mation this Department has concerning him." ^ 

It would be possible to harmonize these diflFerent statements 
by supposing that at the time of the skirmish he was at his home 
in Hatboro, and because of the urgency of the unexpected attack, 
or because of the wounding of some officer, he was unofficially 
given command of a company by General Lacey, which he held 
for this occasion only — that is, he was merely actmg Captain in 
this engagement. Such explanation is suggested only as a pri- 
vate opinion.

52 The Longstreth Family Records. 

Susanna Longstreth was born at Hatboro. In 1795 she 
went to Philadelphia, where in 1797 she entered into the whole- 
sale dry goods business with two of her cousins, Joshua Long- 
streth (3-63) and his brother Morris. She is said to have been 
the first woman importer in the city. " While she continued in 
business, a period of about fifteen years, her sound judgment, kind 
disposition, and perfect uprightness, secured the esteem of a large 
circle of friends. In 1815 she removed to Greenway Farm, 
which she had purchased a few years before, and resided there 
until her decease, enjoying the simple pleasures of the country, su- 
perintending the business of the farm, and dispensing the hospi- 
talities of a large heart, until prevented by the infirmities of age. 
Although her affections centered with uncommon force and 
ardor upon the members of her family, even to cousins of the 
third and fourth degree, they were by no means limited to those 
who were connected with her by ties of consanguinity. Her love 
and interest took a much wider range, embracing, indeed, the 
whole human family. She felt especial sympathy for those who 
were in danger of being overlooked. She was a striking example 
of watchfulness in conversation, being rarely heard to speak of the 
faults of others, and when these were mentioned in her presence 
she generally had something to say of their good qualities, or, if 
nothing could be said in extenuation, she would turn the conversa- 
tion into another channel. She was remarkable for a happy, 
cheerful spirit, which diffused its influence like genial sunshine 
upon all about her, and a thankful heart induced her frequently 
to number her blessings. She was in the daily practice of read- 
ing the Holy Scriptures, which she much enjoyed, and was dili- 
gent in her attendance of our religious meetings as long as health 
permitted." — Friends' Intelligencer. 

Greenway Farm was situated on Darby Road near Gray's 
Ferry. The house was built in 1787 by an English gentleman who 
came with the British army during the Revolution, and was so

much pleased with the country that he resolved to stay. He 
bought a tract of land and called it" Greenway Court," where he 
lived like an English squire upon his beautiful estate. He planted 
a fine grove of English elms about the house, which grew to great 
size. For forty years this was the home of Susannah Long- 
streth. Here relatives and friends travelling over the Southern 
Post Road always found a welcome to bed and board. She espe- 
cially loved to have young people about her ; to her nieces and 
nephews it was another home, and after Mary Anna Longstreth 
opened her school, it was " Aunt Susan " who instituted the May- 
day parties spent by the pupils and their parents under her spread- 
ing elms. To her little cousins attending Sharon Boarding School 
hers was a house of all delights, both when they rested there for 
dinner on the long drive to school, and also when they were in- 
vited to spend an occasional First-day with her. In that house- 
hold, the second place in their affections was occupied by Alice, 
the housekeeper, whose kindness and love of children were equal 
to her mistress's, and whose cookies never faded from their 
memory. 

After Susanna Longstreth's death the property was sold, the 
stately elms were cut down for lumber, and the house descended 
lower and lower in the social scale, until it has now become a 
tenement house occupied by foreigners.

Bradford Monthly Meeting was given Benjamin Longstreth, a 
youth who is placed apprentice, i mo. 5, 1764. 

Long and unavailing search was made for the date of his 
marriage among meeting records ; the reason of failure was ex- 
plained when, at the eleventh hour, the following minutes of Phil- 
adelphia Monthly Meeting for the Northern District were dis- 
covered : 

" 22nd of 6th mo., 1773. A paper was produced from the 
women's meeting, signed by Sarah Longstreth, late Fussell, con- 
demning her clandestine marriage before a Justice of the Peace, 
contrary to our wholesome rules and the advice of her friends, 
and expressing a hope that her future conduct would demonstrate 
the sincerity of what she has now ofifered, which it is agreed shall 
remain for further consideration. 

" 27th of 7 mo., 1733. Sarah Longstreth's paper is accepted 
by the meeting.'' 

Comparison with other like cases of discipline would indi- 
cate, therefore, that the marriage of Benjamin and Sarah Long- 
streth took place early in 1773. 

He lived at Phoenixville, opposite the old market place ; the 

sell by his second marriage, Sarah Fussell was half-sister to William Fussell. 
(See 2-1.) 

Two dates for his death are given in the diary of Daniel Longstreth 
(4-48); one, quoting Isaac Longstreth (3-9), his uncle, "Benjamin died in 1798 
of yelloAv fever, near the Valley Meeting-house, where he was buried. He took 
the fever in Philadelphia, and was on his way home, on French Creek, now 
Phoenixville, Chester County, Pa. He was 50 or 51 years old." " He rode up 
to William Davis's, a little above the Valley Meeting-house, and there died." 
This same statement is repeated on several memorandum slips. 

In another place in his diary he makes a memorandum of a record of 
graves in Valley Meeting Burying-ground which gives a charge of 8s. 4d. for 
digging Benjamin Longstreth's grave, 8 mo. 8, 1802. This record is in the reg- 
ister kept by Lewis Walker, who did not begin digging graves at Valley Meet- 
ing till 1800. There is also an original letter in possession of John L. Long- 
streth, written 3 mo. 16, 1800, by Daniel Longstreth (2-3) to his brother-in- 
law, Thomas Ross, which says: " My brother Benjamin has sent his daughter 
Sally who is about sixteen years of age " to live with her uncle Daniel to be 
instructed in reading, writing, and arithmetic. The letter shows that the ar- 
rangement is a recent one, and the form of its expression seems clear evidence 
that Benjamin was living at the time it was written.

stone house which he built is still in use as a residence. In a list 
of families taken at the time of the Revolution, his name is given, 
and a slave " Pet " is named, belonging to him. He was the 
founder of the town, in virtue of having erected there the first 
iron-works, forerunner of the present great industrial plant, the 
Phoenix Iron Company. The land was a mill tract, purchased by 
Jonathan and Benjamin Coates (2-5 and 2-6) in 1760. They sold 
it to John Longstreth (2-7), who in 1785 rebuilt the mill, and 
later sold the property to Benjamin Longstreth. The iron indus- 
try which he started, and other improvements introduced by him, 
attracted many to the neighborhood, and so laid the foundations 
of the prosperity of the present thriving town. ^

time he lived in Montgomery County. A reminiscence of his 
early life which he related to Daniel Longstreth (4-48) indicates 
the expedients made necessary by the hardships of the Revolu- 
tion. At that time they made wooden buttons at Joseph Long- 
streth's (2-10), but had no wire for shanks, as none could be 
bought during the war. Bartholomew Fussell and John Fitch 
made wire out of an old brass kettle belonging to Joseph Long- 
streth, and so supplied their needs. He said that one morning 
he had turned, polished, and shanked a gross of buttons before 

eleven o'clock. 

He moved with his family to Maryland, and became a mem- 
ber of Little Falls (now Fallston) Meeting. He expected with 
the aid of his sons to do a great work in farming, but the evils 
of slavery made it impossible for any one holding his inherited 
views to carry on the farm under southern conditions. Tn 1830 
he returned to Chester County, and lived with his daughter, 
Esther Lewis. At the time of his death he was a member of 
Uwchlan Alonthly Meeting. For many years he was a highly 
esteemed minister among Friends, and at his death a memorial of 
him was published. ' He died at his daughter's farm, being, as it 
was said, " young at eighty-four." His wife, who survived him 
many years, died at the advanced age of ninety-nine years.

^ The parish of Kirkbride, Cumberland, England, was granted forth from 
the barony of Wigton in King John's time, by Adam, second Lord Wigton, to 
Adam his second son, a kniglit, whose posterity took the name of their man- 
sion house and were styled de Kirkbride. The last of the direct succession 
sold the manor in 1540. The American Kirkbrides trace their descent from 
Joseph, born 1662, in the parish of Fulton, died 1738, son of Matthew and 
Magdalene Kirkbride, who were among the earliest Friends. He was an 
apprentice, and ran away from his master, sailed on the " Bristol Factor," 
arriving Dec. 11, 1681; he revisited England in 1699, called on his old master, 
and paid him for the service he had deprived him of by running aM'ay. In 
1700 he returned to Philadelphia on the "Welcome." 

He became an influential citizen, and a leading minister among Friends. 
He was one of the signers of the " Declaration or Testimony of Denial" in 
1692, against George Keith, that disturber of the religious peace in the young 
colonj'. He visited E^rgland in 1699, and engaged in a mission journey; he 
later undertook a similar mission in the northern colonies of America. He 
was a surveyor, and in 1719 was appointed one of the commissioners to nm 
the boundary line between New York and New Jersey. He waa Justice of

He married second, 1702, Sarah, daughter of Mahlon and Rebecca Stacy, 
of Falls, who died in 170.3, leaving a son Malilon. 

Mahlon Kirkbride settled in Lower Makefield, Bucks County. He also 
was a member of the Assembly; in 1759 he and three others vacated their 
seats at the request of the Council in London, who desired that no Quaker 
Hhould sit in the Assembly in time of war. — Watson's " Annals," Vol. I., page 
100. He married ISlarj', daughter of John and ilary Sotcher. Their son Bob- 
ert, bom 1737, left many descendants. 

' Mordecai Michener, bom 1 mo. SO, 1723, died 9 mo. 25, 1795, wa.«» the 
son of William and Mary Kuster ]\Iichener, and grandson of John and Sarah 
Michener. (See 2-3, footnote.) Mordecai Michener had a son Mordecai, 
who married Alice Dunn, and had, among other children, a son Ezra, b. 11 
mo. 24, 1794, who was the author of " Retrospect of Early Quakerism," and 
an industrious genealogist. The compiler of the Dawson Records acknowledged 
his indebtedness to this Dr. Ezra Michener, of Chester County, for a list of 
two hundred and twenty-seven names of descendants of John and Martha 
Tx)ngstreth INIichener. 

Sarah Fisher was the daughter of John and Elizabeth (Light) Fisher, 
granddaughter of John and Margaret Fisher, who came to America with 
William Penn in 1682. (See 3-68, footnote.) John Fisher, 2d, was the second 
son of John and Margaret Fisher; little is known concerning him. A deed, 
dated Nov. 25, 1701, shows that he owned a tract of over four hundred acre* 
in Accomac County, on the eastern shore of Maryland.

a voyage down the Ohio and the Mississippi Rivers to New 
Orleans, and thence to the West Indies. The ship was captured 
by the British, and he was held prisoner because he had sailed 
from a Spanish port, the two countries being then at war. Later, 
he ascended the Mississippi as far as Baton Rouge, and went 
from there to Pinckneyville, where he died, after about sixteen 
years' absence from home.

He was for several years clerk of Horsham Meeting, and 
was made an overseer in 1825. 

" His disease was dropsy of the chest. His sufferings, which 
for several weeks prior to his dissolution, were very severe, were 
borne with great patience, and truly Christian resignation. He 
was an indulgent parent, faithful, sincere friend, and kind neigh-

Third Generation. 'J}^ 

When in his thirteenth year, Joseph Longstreth went to learn 
the trade of hatter with Joseph Biidd, in Second Street, Philadel- 
phia, with whom he remained most of the time till his twenty- 
second year. He afterwards carried on the hatting business for 
some years at Hatboro. It is not known whether he returned to 
live at the Homestead before his father's death in 1803, although 
it is probable that he did so. But it is certain that from that time 
he lived at the farm and carried on farming until his death. 

The Longstreths were advanced farmers ; Joseph Long- 
streth used in 1812 the first hay-rake in the county. His father 
used lime on his land as early as 1775, and his uncles, John and 
Joseph, were among the first to sow clover seed. 

Sarah Longstreth was a woman of firm religious principles 
and unafifected piety, an elder of Horsham Meeting. Both were 
very kind to the poor and were held in high esteem.

David and Mary (Richardson) Thomas had a son David, born 177G, died 
1859, who was a civil engineer on the Erie Canal in the time of Gov. Clinton. 
He was a distinguished florist and writer on agriculture. His son. Dr. Joseph 
Thomas, was a great traveller and man of wide learning. He was the com- 
piler of Lippincott's " Biographical Dictionary," and of the " Gazetteer of the 
World." This family is di.stinct from that of Martha Thomas, wife of Isaac

1843 ; m. in Baltimore, Dec. i, 1801, Richard Price, son of Samuel 
and Ann Price, of Baltimore. (See 3-18.) 

Born in Chester Coimty, Pa., Phebe Coates went to Balti- 
more with her parents, presenting a certificate from Uwchlan to 
Gunpowder Monthly Meeting, dated 7 mo. 8, 1790. 

Richard Price was cashier of a bank in Baltimore, but was 
burned out. He decided to move westward, and went to Ohio, 
where he taught school, and also worked as a joiner. 

The marriage of these two was attended with troubles. A 
minute of Baltimore Monthly Meeting, held 8 mo. 12, 1802, reads : 
" Richard Price and Phebe Price (late Coates) have had a right 
of membership with us, but have so far deviated from our re-

ligious testimonies as to have their marriage accompHshed with 
the assistance of an hireHng teacher, after having been tenderly 
labored with to convince them of the impropriety thereof, we do 
disown them, from any longer being members with us." 

Their granddaughter, Elizabeth P. Stockman, has in her pos- 
session a mirror that belonged to Phebe Coates. The story con- 
nected with it is, that she and her twin sister Susanna, each re- 
ceived upon their fifteenth birthday a gift of fifteen dollars. It 
is not known what use Susanna made of hers ; but with her 
money, Phebe bought a mirror which had a carved frame. This 
mirror has followed the fortunes of the family, passing through 
fire and flood; and, though its beauty has suffered from these 
vicissitudes, it is still one of the most prized possessions of its 
owner.

mo. 14, 1783. 

I mo. 14, 1785. Rebecca Coates made acknowledgement 
for marrying out of meeting. So it must be supposed that Wil- 
liam Coates was disowned between the date of his certificate and 
the time of his marriage. Their children were received into mem- 
bership, by the request of parents, 2 mo. 17, 1797. 

They lived in West Bradford Township, Chester County, Pa. 

West, who went to ^Maryland from Springfield, DelaAvare County, Pa., soon 
after they were married, about 1780. There is a tradition in the West family 
that Thomas West was a cousin of Benjamin West, the Quaker artist, who 
became president of the Royal Academy, London.

' Thomas Fell was a descendant of Joseph Fell, who came from Cumber- 
land, England. He brought a certificate from the meeting at Woodhall, in 
Caldbeck, dated 20th of 10 mo., 1704, to Buckingham meeting, and settled iu 
1705 a few miles north of the meeting; much of the original farm is still in 
the ownership of descendants. 

Longland.s, the ancestral home of the Fells, is in the Parish of Uldale, 
Cumberland, about seventeen miles from Keswick. The estate has been in 
the family for six hundred years, and the house, which is still standing, is 
in possession of a descendant. 

Joseph Fell, son of John and Margaret Fell, of Longlands, born 1668, 
married Bridget Willson, of Granary, Parish of Caldbeck. Their son Benja- 
min married Hannah Iredell, and was an approved minister in 1745. 

Thomas Fell, son of Benjamin and Hannah (Iredell) Fell, married, 1770, 
Grace Parry, daughter of Philip and Rachel (Harker) Parry, of Buckingham. 
Their marriage certificate is in the hands of their great-grandson, Charlea 
Fell, of Kirk's Mills, Lancaster County, Pa. Philip Parry was a grandson 
of Thomas and Elinor Parry, who came from South Wales in 1692 or 1693.—

Coates by his father, Moses Coates, Jr., two hundred acres of land 
south of Phoenixville, part of a tract of five hundred acres bought 
by Moses Coates, Sr., from Grace Lloyd. The tract had been 
deeded to her husband, David Lloyd, by the Commissioners of 
Property for the Province in 1708. On this farm John and Han- 
nah Coates spent their married life; he dying intestate, the prop-

Richard and Elizabeth Mather and son David were given a 
certificate of removal from Abington to Darby Meeting, 5 mo. 
2, 181 1. In 1815 the family moved from Darby, Pa., to Little 
Miami Mills, O., now known as Mather's Mills, on the Little 
Miami River, five miles east of Lebanon, coming down the Ohio 
River on a flat-boat. A log cabin was their first home in Ohio. 
Their certificate from Darby Meeting was dated 3 mo. 16, 181 5. 
Here they lived until Elizabeth L. Mather's death ; after this, 
Richard Mather made his home with his children, and died at the 
house of his daughter Sarah.

All the children of this family were noted for high ideals, 
rare spiritual gifts, and zeal in good works. Among them, how- 
ever, the name of Mary Anna Longstreth is perhaps most widely 
known, and will be remembered for the influence that she exer- 

large tract of land. He was a member with Friends, and active in Abington 

His 'son Benjamin, bom 1737, married 1778, Ann, daughter of Jonathan 
Thomas, of Lower Dublin. He also was a member of Abington Meeting -

^ Isaac Collins born 1746, died 1817, was the son of Charles Collins, who 
came from Bristol, England, about 1700, and lived in New Castle County, 
Delaware. Isaac Collins went to Burlington, N. J., where, in 1771, he mar- 
ried Rachel Budd, daughter of Thomas and Rebecca Budd. He became a 
printer and was appointed printer to King George III. for the Province of 
New Jersey After the revolt of the Colonies, he printed much of the Con- 
tinental monev issued bv the Congress. From his printing office came also 
in 1790 the first quarto Bible printed in America; in this undertaking he re- 
ceived wide encouragement, not only from Friends, but also from churc'ies 
and clergymen in the adjacent States. Such care was spent upon this work, 
both in the execution and in the proof-reading, that it is said to be the most 
correct edition printed, the only imperfections being a broken letter, and a 
mark of punctuation. . . ^, , r^ ^^ ^ t 

Isaac Collins-' oldest daughter, Rebecca, married Stephen Grellet, a retu- 
gee of the French Revolution, who came to America, became a Friend, and 
was later a noted minister. He made several missionary journeys through 
Europe visiting the rulers of the several countries, including the Pope, on 
behalf of religious liberty and of prisoners.

cised over the young life of which her school was so long the 
center. 

She was by nature a student ; her education began when she 
was sent to school at the age of five, and ceased only with her life. 
At eight she began studying Latin with Dr. J. P. Price, after- 
wards a missionary in Burmah, there being then no girls' school 
in Philadelphia where Latin was taught. Before she was twelve 
she had read all of Virgil and was so well grounded in Latin that 
when at the age of thirteen she entered John M. Brewer's new 
school, where the classics were taught, she was engaged to assist 
with the Latin classes, while pursuing her own studies. 

In 1829, she with her sister Susan opened a school at No. 3 
N. Eleventh Street. They began with five pupils, and before the 
end of the year the number had grown to fourteen. This was the 
modest beginning of her school which continued forty-eight years. 
The gift of teaching was hers in a high degree, and from the 
first, there was no question as to success. The youngest sister, 
Elizabeth, also taught in the school until her marriage. 

To secure larger accommodations the school moved in 1836 
to Cherry Street near Eleventh, where forty-five girls could be re- 
ceived ; here it remained twenty-one years. One incident con- 
nected with this building shows the sisters' attitude toward the 
vital questions of the day. In 1838 Pennsylvania Hall on Sixth 
Street, in which the Woman's Abolition Society was holding a 
convention, was burned to the ground by a mob. The sisters 
offered to the Convention the use of their school-house, which 
narrowly escaped the same fate, being saved only by the efforts 
of Mordecai L. Dawson and other friends, who succeeded in dis- 
persing the incendiary rioters. 

In 1847 one hundred applicants were refused for lack of 
room, but not till 1857 was the school moved to a larger house at 
Filbert and Juniper Streets, where ninety pupils could be accom- 
modated. Ten years later, the site being wanted for the Masonic

Temple, a last move was made to a house on Merrick Street (now 
Broad), facing what was then the green enclosure of Penn 
Square. Broad Street Station now stands on this site, and Penn 
Square has given place to the dingy marble of City Hall. 

In spite of the rest of the summer vacations, usually spent 
at Newport, Mary Anna Longstreth's years of teaching had told 
upon her, and in 1877 she felt that she could no longer continue 
the school. The letter announcing this decision to her pupils ex- 
presses deep regret at the necessity of the step, and at the sever- 
ing of a relationship in which the depth of feeling on both sides 
was very strong. 

Although burdened with the cares and anxieties of so large 
a school, she had still found time in those busy years for benevo- 
lent work. She visited the prisoners in the Penitentiary ; she was 
one of the incorporators of the Woman's Medical College, and 
a manager of the Woman's Hospital. Her greatest interest in 
later years was the Hampden Institute for colored youth. Her 
pupils contributed to found a scholarship at Hampden, and she 
herself founded another. 

While these causes and many others enlisted her interest, yet 
her school is the work for which her name chiefly stands. Un- 
der her beautiful influence, three generations of girls grew to 
womanhood, carrying into life some measure of the grace by 
which she lived. Her pupils did not forget her when schooldays 
were over, but remained among her warmest friends. The men- 
tion of her name to one of these old pupils — even one to whom 
school is a memory half a century old— brings a light into the 
face, and the announcement, as of some proud distinction, " / was 
one of Mary Anna Longstreth's girls." 

An extract from her farewell letter to the school gives in her 
own words the secret of her success as an educator, and of her 
sweet influence ; for what she taught, that she herself lived : 

" Labor is the price of every valuable acquisition. Be will-

ing then to pay it. Learn thoroughly what you attempt to learn. 
Though it is desirable that your information should be general 
and varied, it need not be superficial. However little may be the 
amount of knowledge you possess on any subject, let that little 
be correct and thorough. Form habits of accuracy, attention, 
and patient research; acquire the power of concentrating and 
controlling your thoughts. . . . Whether the sphere in which you 
are called to move be large or small, you have an important 
mission to fulfil. It is not so much by direct instruction, by coun- 
sel, or rebuke that woman is to do good, as by exhibiting the 
loveliness of the Christian graces, by diffusing the light of a 
correct example, and by maintaining a consistent character, har- 
monious in itself and attractive to others. We must practice self- 
denial, meekness, gentleness, consideration for others in the hourly 
acts of life, and manifest that love which seeks not its own inter- 
est, but the welfare and happiness of others." ^ 

Susan Longstreth, while devoting much time and strength 
to the interests of the school, found time also for works of benevo- 
lence. About 1869 when President Grant's peace policy of deal- 
ing with the Indians was being inaugurated, the Society of 
Friends became an active auxiliary in the work. She was the 
soul of the organization, and by her counsel and guidance the 
movement was greatly strengthened. Her last years were par- 
ticularly associated with the Indian School at Carlisle, Pa. She 
visited the school frequently and aided in its support, not only 
from her personal means, but by inducing others to give. Cap- 
tain Pratt, Superintendent of the school, wrote at the time of her 
death : " I find it impossible to place on record in language too 
strong my appreciation of the support given me by the never- 
failing sympathy, as well as generosity, of Miss Longstreth. 
That a thing was right and ought to be was to her a sufficient

warrant for it to be, and before her calm and assured method of 
attack, difficulties would vanish and the apparently impossible 
would appear perfectly practicable." 

Henry Longstreth was a graduate of the University of Penn- 
sylvania, class of 1832. He first taught school, and then became 
a publisher in connection with the Society of Friends. He re- 
tired from business in 1895, and lived at " Ingleside " with the 
family of his brother, William C. Longstreth. When that house- 
hold was scattered, in 1903, after the death of Abby A. Long- 
streth, he went to Lansdowne, Pa., where he ended his days.

Joshua Longstreth received as a boy a plain English educa- 
tion ; at an early age he came to Philadelphia, where he engaged 
in the dry-goods business with his cousin, Susanna Longstreth 
(3-52) at 28 N. Third Street. He became one of the prominent 
merchants and importers of the city, and was at one time con- 
cerned in the shipping trade between Philadelphia and Liverpool. 
He was a director of the Philadelphia Bank, and his head, as 
shown in the illustration, was engraved on a twenty-dollar bank- 
note of their issue. He was a director in other financial institu-

tions, and one of the founders of the Merchants' Exchange, built 
at Walnut and Dock Streets in 1834. He, with Stephen Girard 
and three others, formed the first Board of Trustees. 

" He prospered in business and in 1809 built a house at 185 
Arch Street (present number 515). The extent of the lot afforded 
him opportunity to gratify his favorite taste of horticulture. His 
greenhouse was the first of private ownership in Philadelphia, 
and being easy of access, it was a favorite resort of friends, and 
of strangers who came to see the rare exotics with which it was 
filled. An old fig tree which bore profusely every year stood in 

the garden." 

Joshua Longstreth's first country seat was on Ridge Road, 
at the corner of Turner's Lane; he sold this and bought " Pem- 
broke," also on Turner's Lane, which he held till 1830. He then 
bought " Barclay Hall," a fine old colonial mansion on the west 
side of Turner's Lane above Ridge Road. It was his invariable 
custom during the winter to drive out to his country-house imme- 
diately after dinner and remain till dark. In 1835 he took up his 
permanent residence at " Barclay Hall." It was then thought to 
be some distance in the country, but before his death the city 
streets were opened to the line of his property and many houses 
were erected near bv. Norris Street, as laid out on the city plan, 
ran through the house ; he used to tell visitors that the spot where 
the inkstand stood upon his library table would some day be the 
curb-stone of Norris Street. The Memorial Church of the Advo- 
cate now stands upon part of his estate. Out of deference to him, 
the authorities refrained from opening the streets till after his 

death. 

In early life his political views were in sympathy with the 
Whig party ; when the Republican party came into existence he 
was one of its steadfast supporters. It is said that he never 
missed polling his vote for President from the election of John 
Adams to Lincoln's second term. He adhered to the Orthodox

Branch of the Society of Friends, and was a regular attendant 
at meeting until prevented by old age. 

In 1835, when sixty years old, he visited Europe, and during 
the remainder of his life retained vivid and pleasant memories of 
his journey. While in London he visited the Herald's College 
in quest of the Longstreth coat-of-arms. (See page 32.) 

Joshua Longstreth was of a generous disposition, giving of 
his means to all benevolent movements. His home was gener- 
ously opened to many of his relatives who had been bereft by 
adversity or by death. " Of his hospitality there can be no doubt ; 
there are few of his friends who have not partaken of it, — of his 
fruits and flowers ; there were none, rich or poor, but participated 
therein when visiting Barclay Hall. He had a remarkably even 
temperament and this with his regular habits and his living so 
much in the open air, no doubt contributed to his longevity." —

In recognition of the hardships of his long imprisonment he was raised 
to the rank of First Lieutenant. He lived at Burlington, N. J., and in Phila-

He received the appointment of Postmaster, and in connection 
with this employment opened a store for general merchandise. 
About 1812 he moved to Philadelphia, and became an importer 
of China and India silk goods. He Hved for several years close 
by the walls of historic Old Christ Church, at number 13 Church 
Alley, over his store, as was then the prevailing custom. As his 
business prospered, he moved first his store, and later his family to 
other quarters, his dwelling in 1820 being on Eleventh Street be-

date was looked upon as a great undertaking, as it took six

Helen G. Longstreth, named in honor of a Russian lady, wife 
of her uncle, Miers Fisher, Jr., was a member of Race Street 
Meeting, in whose affairs she was interested up to the time of her 
death. She was the first woman to serve on the Library Com- 
mittee of the Meeting, where her good judgment was greatly 
valued. For many years she was one of the editors of the Friends' 
Intelligencer. She was a member of the Jane Johnson Trust, 
originally known as the " Book Association of Friends." A 
large part of her time was devoted to philanthrophy, one of her 
most active works being her connection with the Charity Organi- 
zation. She was one of the earliest members of the Female As- 

^ The Fisher famih' is descended from John and Margaret Fisher, who 
came on the ship " Welcome," and survived the dangers of that voyage during 
which nearly one-third of those who set sail from Deal in August, 1682, died 
at sea of smallpox. John Fisher early took an important part in affairs. 

His oldest son Thomas, born in England about 1669, died 1713, moved to 
Sussex County, Del., and represented his county in the Provincial Assembly. 
He was appointed overseer of highways and commissioned as justice of the 
peace, his office carrying with it a place on the bench of the county courts. 
He married, 1692, Margery, daughter of Joshua and Elizabeth (Parr) Maud. 

His son Joshua, bom 1707, died 1783, married, 1733, Sarah, daughter of 
Thomas and Sarah (Miers) Rowland. In 1746 he moved to Philadelphia, 
bringing a certificate from Duck Creek Meeting. 

He lived at Front and Dock Streets, where he had a large maritime and

sociation for the Relief of the Poor, and was deeply interested in 
the elevation of the negro race, and in the prosperity of the col- 
ored schools in the south. She took a most active part in the 
establishing of Swarthmore College, and at its opening occu- 
pied the position of Dean. The zeal which she expended in this 
work exhausted her strength, and she was obliged to resign. She 
was one of the earlier members of the New Century Club of 
Philadelphia, a pioneer among women's clubs. Even after pass- 
ing the four-score milestone, her faculties were undimmed, and 
her interest in the good things in life unabated. 

Sidney E. Longstreth was so young at the time of her par- 
ents' death that she did not remember either of them, and al- 
though surrounded by loving relatives and friends, she was fol- 
lowed through life with a sense of the loss of her mother. She 
had a sensible mind, keen perceptions, great perseverance and a 
desire to cultivate her powers. For this reason, and incited also 
by her love for children, she devoted herself to their tuition for 
several years, during which time a strong mutual attachment 
sprang up. She studied the Kindergarten method, introduced by 
Froebel into Holland, and taught in the school of her friend, Miss 
Anna Dickson, a native of Scotland, whose advanced system of 
teaching was greatly appreciated in Philadelphia. She loved 
flowers and joined the Horticultural Society that she might have 
a more intelligent appreciation of them. 

She visited for the Philadelphia Society for Organizing Char- 
mercantile business. He signed the " Non-importation Agreement " in 1765, 
but when the Revolution began, he adhered to Friends' principle of non- 
resistance, for which he was made to suffer by the patriots. 

His son, Miers Fisher, read law with Benjamin Chew, Attorney General 
of the Province, and was admitted to the bar in 1769. He was " a profound 
lawyer, a man of solid sense and much acquired knowledge." He served as 
member of the City Council, and of the Assembly. He used his influence to 
procure the passage of an Act for the better preventing of crime and the 
abolishing of the death penalty in certain cases, which passed in 1794. He was 
the first counsellor of an anti-slavery society, founded in 1793. — " Genealogy

of Robert and Sarah (Field) McKee, b. Jan. 20, 1776; d. August

Joseph Longstreth was born at the farm-house on top of the 
hill near Mason's tavern, Phoenixville. He came to Philadelphia 
about 1796, and engaged in the dry-goods business. The first 
mention of his name in the city directory is 1799, — Joseph Long- 
streth, shopkeeper, 2i7 Pewter Platter Alley; a few years later 
his store was at 28 N. Third Street (old number). 

Margaret McKee was born in Middletown, Lancaster (now 
Dauphin) County. Her father was a soldier in the Revolutionary 
Army ; one of her earliest memories was that of being held up in 



Third Generation. 97 

her mother's arms to see him march by with his regiment to join 
the main army, he waving a farewell to his wife and child that 
proved to be the last in this world. ^ After reaching young 
womanhood, Margaret McKee came to Philadelphia from the 
country to better her circumstances ; among the few avenues for 
gaining a livelihood open to women a century ago, she chose that 
of seamstress. The story is told that one day while she was sew- 
ing at a friend's house, a caller dropped in for a dish of gossip, 
bringing the stirring news that Joe Longstreth was engaged to 
be married, but nobody could find out to whom. Hostess and vis- 
itor, both young girls like herself, turned the news over and over, 
wondered who the fortunate girl was (for Joseph Longstreth 
was thought a very elegible young man), and talked as girls, 
whether of that day or this, will talk over such an event. And 
meantime, Joe Longstreth's prospective bride sat demurely at her 
sewing, and gave no hint that she had any interest in the subject 
of the conversation. 

The marriage brought upon Joseph Longstreth the disci- 
pline of the meeting, for Margaret McKee was a Presbyterian, 
and the marriage was performed by Dr. Collin, of Old Swedes' 
Church, which was, in that day, the Gretna Green for Philadel- 
phia. 

The meeting took up the question of his marrying out. 

" Uwchlan Monthly Meeting held the 8th day of 6th Month, 
1797, reports that Uwchlan Preparative Meeting brings a com- 
plaint against Joseph Longstreth for Marrying a Woman not in 
membership with Friends by the assistance of a hireling Priest. 

'Robert McKee was captured in one of the battles near New York, and 
was sent to the prison-ship, Jersey, in New York Harbor. At his release 
from that pest-hole, he started to walk home, having no money to pay his way; 
but he never reached his destination. Weakened by the hardship and priva- 
tions of his imprisonment, he fell sick upon his homeward way, and died 
somewhere in New Jersey. The place of his death was either not known, or 
was forgotten by his daughter, as its name has not been handed down with 
the story, to his grandchildren's children.

" Nathan Sharpless and William Lightfoot are appointed to 
treat with him on account thereof, and report at our next." 

" Uwchlan Monthly Meeting held the 6th day of 7th Month, 
1797, reports the committee appointed report, that they had an 
opportunity with Joseph Longstreth, who appeared desirous to 
satisfy Friends, and requested a Month's delay in his case, which 
this Meeting grants." 

" At Uwchlan Monthly Meeting held the loth day of 8th 
Month, 1797, the Friends appointed report, they have had an op- 
portunity with Joseph Longstreth, who received the visit Friendly 
and appeared desirous of making an acknowledgment, which they 
did not discourage him from, and he appearing here, produced 
a paper condemning his mis-conduct, which the Meeting upon 
deliberate consideration, agrees to receive, and it is ordered to be 

recorded." 

It is supposed that Joseph Longstreth belonged to Pikeland 
Meeting, that being one of the three composing Uwchlan Monthly 
Meeting. Having taken up his residence in Philadelphia, Joseph 
Longstreth transferred his membership to Philadelphia Monthly 

Meeting. 

" Uwchlan Monthly Meeting held the 8th day of 2nd Month, 
1798. Joseph Longstreth requested a certificate to Philadelphia 

Monthly Meeting." 

" Uwchlan Monthly Meeting held the 8th day of 3rd Month 
1798. Certificate for Joseph Longstreth was produced, approved 

and signed." 

Joseph Longstreth died of consumption when only thirty- 
four years old, and his wife continued his business for the sup- 
port of herself and children. Four years after her husband's 
death, she asked to be received into membership with Friends.

Church at Shrewsbury, July 27, 1740. 

Benjamin Dennis married in 1764, Hannah Little, bom 1746, died 1835- 
He served in the Revolutionary War as Captain in the First Company of 
the Third Regiment of Now Jersey and was confined in the prison-ship, Jer- 
sey, in New York Harbor. He was killed near the present town of Farming- 
dale, N. J., July, 1778, by Lewis Fenton, a notorious refugee and woods- 
robber, in the death of whose companion, Fagan, also an outlaw, Benjamin 
Dennis had been instrumental. His commission as caj^tain, issued by the 
Provincial Congress of New Jersey, July 17, 1776, is in the possession of hia 
great-grandson Lambert Woodhull, of Dayton, Ohio. Benjamin Dennis had 
six children, of whom the third was Isabella, who married Benjamin Long- 
streth. Some time after the death of Benjamin Dennis his wife married 
John Lamhert, of Lambertville, N. J., and had six chidren. 

Hannah Little was a descendant of Lieutenant Colonel John Little, who 
settled at Shrewsbury, N. J., prior to 1700.

of John and Mildred (Cooke) Keen, ' b. July 31, 1789, in North- 
ern Liberties, Philadelphia; d. Feb. 4, 1883. 

Joseph S. Keen was educated in private schools in Philadel- 
phia. In 1809, he visited an uncle in London, and passed the fol- 
lowing winter in Russia, returning by way of Sweden and Eng- 
land. After several voyages to the Southern States and the 
West Indies, he took up his residence in West Philadelphia in 
1816. He followed the business of lumber merchant, and ac- 
quired some valuable real estate. 

In 1830 he moved to the corner of Chestnut Street and Man- 
sion, now Thirty-second. There was then no great city west of 
the Schuylkill; the houses were mostly scattered, with wide 
stretches of fields between. To the little cousins from Third 
Street, a visit there seemed like a trip to the country. Joseph 
S. Keen lived here until 1874, when he moved to 3237 Chestnut 

' John Keen wa? a descendant of Joran Kyn, one of the earliest European 
residents ^-ithin the boundaries of the present State of Pennsylvania He waa 
born in Sweden about 1620, and came to America with Governor Prmtz m 
+he ship "l-'ama," which irrived at New Castle, Feb. 15, 1643. Governor 
Printz built a fort higher up the Delaware, on Tinicum Island. Here resided 
Joran Kyn a soldier whose duty was to attend daily on the governor and 
travel with him as one of his body guard. Kyn received the grant of a royal 
tract of land Iving between Chester and Ridley Creeks, and extending one and 
a half miles back from the Delaware. It is believed that when Governor 
Printz returned to Sweden, Joran Kyn resigned his military position, and set- 
tled on his land as a colonist. He was the largest landholder and one of the 
important men in the Swedish settlement of Upland now Chester^See 
"Descendants of Joran Kyn, the Founder of Upland,' Gregory B. Keen, 
LL.D., Pennsylvania Magazine, Vols. II.-VII.

Street, a house which he had built for his son, in which he died. 
In 1890 his executors sold the old home to Anthony J. Drexel, 
who erected upon its site the Drexel Institute. 

He was Commissioner of the district of West Philadelphia, 
and was active in all matters relating to the improvement of that 
district. He was a prominent member of the Episcopal Church, 
having been baptized and confirmed by Bishop White at Old 
Christ Church. He was one of the founders of St. Mary's 
Church, West Philadelphia, drawing the plans and superintend- 
ing the construction of the first church building. He was a ves- 
tryman of that church, and also of St. Mark's, now St. Andrew's, 
West Philadelphia, and a deputy to the Diocesan Convention 
which elected Alonzo Potter Bishop of Pennsylvania. 

He enjoyed telling how, as a boy, he used to sit on the wall 
in front of Old Christ Church, on a Sunday morning, waiting to 
see President Washington escort his lady from the church after 
service and hand her into their coach. This privilege of watch- 
ing the departure of the President was accorded by their parents 
only to good little boys, who might sometimes also be privileged 
to sit on the chancel steps where they could face the President 
during service, instead of being swallowed up by the high-backed 
pews which were then in the church. His memory, covering 
nearly a century, remained clear, and his conversation was the 
product of a fine and balanced mind ; and this, combined with the 
courtesy of manner, amounting to actual courtliness, which he 
showed to young as well as old, made any intercourse with him 
a rare pleasure. ^ 



^ Joseph S. Keen married second, Lucy Ann Hutton, and had two chil- 
dren: liucj'^, M'ho married William Pointell Johnston, M.D., and Gregory B., 
who married Stella Maria Watson, a widow, daughter of Dr. Charles Stokes. 
Gregory B. Keen, LL.D., is Secretary of the Historical Society of Pennsyl- 
vania; the compiler is indebted to him for aid in this Record.

Jacob Longstreth was educated at Cummings Academy, near 
Philadelphia. In his youth he went to Ohio, where he established 
himself in Clarksville, thirty miles north of Cincinnati. He jomed 
the Shakers, but after a time left them, and moved to Tippecanoe 
County Ind., where he had a saw mill. He was a man who val- 
ued learning, and being removed in his frontier life from society 
and schools, he engaged a tutor for his children and devoted much 
of his time to training them himself in habits of good readmg and 
clear thinking. During part of his life he was an invalid, which 
crave him greater opportunity for companionship with his chil- 

dren.

3-81. GEORGE FIELD LONGSTRETH, b. April 26, 
1796, in Phccnixville, Pa.; d. in Warren County, O., April 5, 
1875 ; m. first, Dec. 17, 1818, Sarah Wilkerson, b. March 28, 1799; 
d. August 13, 1842. 

George F. Longstreth went from Pennsylvania to Ohio in 
1817, walking the entire distance, except when a farmer's wagon 
travelling his way gave him an occcasional ride. He arrived in 
Cincinnati when it was a small town, and from there went thirty 
miles north to the village of Clarksville, where his brother Jacob 
had already established his home. For several years he worked 
at his trade as carpenter. Soon after his marriage he moved to 
the farm which was his home for the rest of his life. It was 
situated in Warren County, near Fort Ancient, and not far from 
Lebanon. His first house was of logs, built in the thick woods ; 
this was replaced by a large frame house, the same in which he 
died. 

He was a man of marked energy and ability ; although his 
educational opportunities had been limited, he was a fine mathe- 
matician, and in early days the teachers of the district school 
used often to call in his help when problems proved difficult. 
Having deep religious convictions, he was scrupulous in carrying 
them out ; he always held to the faith of his birth, and his Friends' 
principles were a notable feature in his character. His sterling 
qualities gained the respect and trust of everyone. He had good 
business ability, and at his death was one of the most prominent, 
as well as one of the most prosperous, men in the county. 

In some reminiscences of her father, Mrs. Ann Harlan 
writes: " I well remember Father's trip to Philadelphia in 1837; 
he traveled in a stage-coach the distance of six hundred miles. 
It was his first trip since he left the land of his birth ; he was 
born near, and reared in, Philadelphia. 

" No father had more earnest wishes for his children's wel- 
fare. One thing he made a study of, and that was, how to edu-

cate them. In early days when there was nothing but mud roads, 
he arranged to have school in his own house, and employed a 
teacher during the winter. He was the first in his vicinity to take 
an interest in the establishment of Antioch College, at Yellow 
Springs, C, in 1852, and in founding scholarships in the college. 
I was one who had the honor as well as pleasure of hearing the 
opening address at the dedication delivered by Horace Mann, its 
first president. ^ 

" Father was also interested in having turnpike roads built, 
and he lived to enjoy them. 

" Towards the end of life, he longed to be at rest, to pass 
from the infirmities of age to immortal youth, and to change the 
image of the earthly for the image of the heavenly. He was 
buried in the family burying ground beside his first wife, at 
Spring Hill."'

Esther Fussell Lewis was a woman of fine character, who 
exercised an influence proportionate to her ability and intelUgence. 
Mtcr her marriage she hved at West Vincent, Chester County, 
Pa., upon a farm which was part of a large tract bought in the 
early settlement of Pennsylvania by her husband's ancestors on the 
Meredith side. She was early left a widow with four children, 
the youngest less than a month old. Before her marriage she had 
been a teacher, first of her own brothers and sisters, and later m 
large schools ; so that she was fitted to undertake the education 
of her children. In the community where she lived her well- 
balanced judgment caused her advice to be sought by relatives, 
neighbors, and dependants. Her life was one of great usefulness 
and worth. It was she who powerfully influenced her brother, 
Dr. Bartholomew Fussell, in his determination to secure medical 
education for women, which resulted in the founding of the 
Women's Medical College of Philadelphia. It was she who, 
stirred in her righteous spirit by the iniquity of slavery, influenced 
her daughters by example and precept towards the activity 
which they later showed in the " Underground Railroad." 

She took great interest in genealogy, and it is to her papers 
that this book owes much of the information and many of the 
traditions of early times. She was one of the most careful and 
accurate of women, and methodical in all she undertook. Before 
her death she sent copies of the extensive family records that she 
had compiled to several of her nieces, seeking to perpetuate in 
them, as she had done in her own daughters, the love of kindred 
which she so strongly felt.

After the death of their mother, the daughters continued to 
make the home a center of kindly acts and helpful influences. 
Their sympathy went out to all in need, and the runaway slave 
in his flight to freedom enlisted their aid. After the passage of 
the Fugitive Slave Law their house became an important station 
on the " Underground Railroad," a converging point for many 
lines when it was unsafe to send the fugitives through Philadel- 
phia. Usually it was necessary to fit them out with clothing, and 
they often gave their own. When they were sick, they nursed 
them back to health, and gave them work on the farm or in the 
kitchen until they were well enough to travel, or until the heat of 
pursuit was past. So prudent were these sisters that it is not re- 
membered that one slave that passed through their hands was 
recaptured. Their success, no doubt, was largely due to their 
different temperaments, one supplementing the others. Mariann 
was quick in an emergency, when inspiration alone could save 
from disaster. Elizabeth, whose health prevented much exertion, 
was the wise counseller who laid the plans ; her dauntless spirit 
never wavered before any difficulties. Graceanna was the execu- 
tive member of the group, and took all the active part in the plans. 
Their married sister Rebecca, and Dr. Bartholomew Fussell also 
aided in the work, both being active abolitionists. ^ 

Mariann was extremely sensitive and retiring and few knew 
her unselfish devotion to the happiness of others. " She was a 
martyr of kindness, and could not protect herself when the com- 
fort of others was in consideration. In consequence, she was be-

loved to an unusual degree, but it wore out her life all too 
soon." — G. L. 

Graceanna was always a lover of nature, and the study she 
gave to it at first from mere joy, became later a support and con- 
solation. In 1869 she printed a pamphlet showing the relation of 
birds to the animal kingdom. Her classification was based on her 
own out-door study, and the use of the library and specimens of 
the Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia, under the direc- 
tion of John Cassin, one of the leading ornithologists of the world. 
This pamphlet was the germ of the charts that she prepared 
later,—'' Chart of the Classification of Birds," " Chart of the Ani- 
mal Kingdom," and " Chart of Geology, with special reference to 
Paleontology-." She prepared also, " Microscope Studies," 
" Water-Color Paintings of Wild Flowers," and " Studies in 
Forestry." She was invited by Prof. Maria Mitchell, president 
of the fourth congress of the Association for the Advancement 
of Women, to write a paper for that meeting. She responded 
with "The Development of the Animal Kingdom," which was 
published in pamphlet form and widely distributed among 

scientists. 

At the Centennial Exposition in 1876, she exhibited a wax 
model in connection with her " Chart of the Animal Kingdom," 
which was commended by Prof. Huxley and other prominent 
naturalists. Encouraged by this indorsement, she made a " Chart 
of the Vegetable Kingdom," which was finished in 1885. Since 
then she has made a " Chart of the True Fishes." All her charts 
are revised from time to time to keep up with scientific knowl- 
edge, but they still await publication. 

Besides her scientific studies, Graceanna Lewis has done 
notable work in the artistic field. Her water-color studies of wild 
flowers, plant forms, and forest branches are so true to nature, 
that she was asked by the Commissioners of Forestry of Penn- 
sylvania to execute fifty paintings of the forest trees in flower,

fruitage or autumnal coloring for exhibition at the World's Fair, 
Chicago, in 1893. These paintings were again exhibited at the 
St. Louis Fair, in 1904, and were awarded a diploma and gold 
medal. She has issued a series of Leaf Charts, that show admir- 
ably the leaf forms in our principle forest trees ; these charts are 
used in a number of schools and colleges. 

In 1870 she was elected a member of the Academy of Natural 
Sciences; she is also honorary member of the Rochester (N. Y.) 
Academy of Science, the American Philosophical Society, the 
Women's Anthropological Society of America, and a life member 
of the Delaware County Institute of Science. 

She lives in Media, where she leads a busy life, writing and 
painting, and giving her earnest, though no longer active, interest 
to reform and philanthropic movements of the day.

the inflation and collapse of values following the declaration of 
peace in 181 5, which ended the Second War with Great Britain, 
he found himself in debt, and to better his fortune he moved in 
1827 from Chester County to the neighborhood of Philadelphia. 
He prospered here, and in a few years returned to his former

Fall Creek Burying-ground. 

About three years after their marriage, they moved to Balti- 
more County, Md., where they remained nearly twelve years. 
While here, their experience of slavery impressed them deeply with 
a sense of its evils, and they bore their testimony against it, even 
in that early day, by abstaining as far as possible from the use of 
the products of slave labor. Thus they infused into the minds 
of their children a spirit of antagonism to slavery, which prepared 
them all to join the ranks of the abolitionists in the earliest days. 
In 1828 they returned to Pennsylvania, and lived near Philadel- 
phia on a dairy farm until 1846, when they moved to Indiana, 
travelling the distance in a two-horse wagon, and settled at Fall 
Creek, Madison County, where they died beloved of all who 
knew them.

and traveled as far as Milton, Wayne County, Ind., beyond which 
the roads were almost impassable. In the autumn of 1832 
he moved with his wife and five children from Chester County, 
Pa., to Fall Creek, the journey being made in a two-horse wagon, 
and requiring an entire month. The next year was one of great 
mortality in his family. He suffered first the loss of his wife; 
soon after three of his children died within a single week, he him- 
self being too sick at the time to be conscious of his loss. As soon 
as he was well enough, he left his two remaining children with a 
relative, and returned to the East, making the long journey, 
though still in feeble health, on horseback. In the autumn of 
1836, he went back to Indiana, this time on foot, driving before 
him a herd of fine cattle. His luggage was carried in a pair of 
saddle-bags slung over the back of a cow.

Solomon Fussell was a man greatly esteemed by everyone, 
because of his character of strictest integrity. All his life he 
was a conscientious anti-slavery and temperance advocate, abstain- 
ing as far as possible from the products of slave-labor. He was 
among the first in his neighborhood, it is said, who refused to 
give liquor to his men in harvest time ; yet he never lacked help, 
although the experiment was one which few farmers ventured to 
try, lest their grain should be left uncut in the fields.

In early life Bartholomew Fussell went to Maryland, where 
he taught school while studying medicine. Here he found op- 
portunity to teach the slaves, and he also held classes on First 
Day for their religious instruction. Many of these slaves, with 
others of their kind, he afterwards protected and assisted at his 
home in Pennsylvania when they were making their way to free- 
dom. He was one of the signers of the " Declaration of Senti- 
ments" issued by the American Anti-Slavery Society in 1833, 
and he had the gratification of attending the last meeting of the 
Pennsylvania Anti-Slavery Society, called together to celebrate 
the downfall of slavery in America and to dissolve the organiza- 
tion, its purpose being accomplished. 

Dr. Fussell was also well known as an advocate of common 
school education, of temperance, and of every other principle 
which he believed important to the welfare of man. He early 
became convinced, in great measure through the influence of his 
sister, Esther Lewis, of the peculiar fitness of woman for the prac- 
tice of medicine. " In the year 1840 he first gave regular instruc- 
tions to a class of women, and it was through one of these pupils 
that the first [woman medical] graduate in America became in- 
terested in the study of medicine. In 1846 he communicated to 
a few liberal-minded professional men a plan for the medical 
education of women. Others, with indomitable zeal, took up the 
work, and finally, after a succession of disappointments and dis- 
couragements, from causes within and without, the Woman's 
College on North College Avenue, Philadelphia, entered on the

career of prosperity it is so well entitled to enjoy. Though never 
at any time connected officially with the college, he regarded its 
success with the most affectionate interest, considering its proposi- 
tion as one of the most important results of his life." ^ 

Among his friends Dr. Fussell counted William Lloyd Garri- 
son and John Greenleaf Whittier, with whom his anti-slavery 
sympathies had made him acquainted, and whose friendship lasted 
throughout their lives. It was while living in Philadelphia in 
1838-40, that Whittier wrote his stirring poem, " The Response." 
It was addressed to the politicians who were clamoring for the 
suppression of the abolitionists, and its lines bade them 

" Go, hunt sedition — search for that 
In every peddler's cart of rags ; 
Pry into every Quaker's hat, 

And Dr. Fussell' s saddle-bags ; 
Lest treason wrap, with all its ills. 
Around his powders and his pills. 

In the Atlantic Monthly of February, 1874, Whittier speaks 
again, in his reminiscences of the Convention of 1833, of " the be- 
loved physician of Kennett Square, Dr. Bartholomew Fussell."

Susan Fussell's life was one of usefulness, without which the 
world would have been the poorer. She began teaching at fifteen, 
and from that time she never ceased her work for others. In 
1861 her brother Joshua, of Fall Creek, entered the army, and she 
offered to stay with his family during his absence. After a year, 
there came an urgent call for nurses in the Union hospitals, to 
which she responded, and was sent to take charge of the Memphis 
hospital. She remained there eight months, until the fall of 
Vicksburg; after a short furlough she was sent to Louisville, 
and later to hospitals in Tennessee and Indiana. Her health 
breaking under the heavy strain, she was forced to rest ; but as 
soon as she was able she resumed her work, and remained in 
service till the end of the war. 

When this line of duty ended, she turned to the needs of the 
soldiers' orphans ; and this, her chief life-work, began in a modest 
way. She took into her own home six children whose fathers 
had fallen in the war. George Merrit of Indianapolis, hearing 
of her work and hoping that the government would adopt this 
" family plan " for its wards, established a home for ten children 
at his own expense, asking Susan Fussell to take charge of it. 
The government did not adopt the plan, but they asked her to 
occupy a cottage on the grounds of the Knightstown Home for 
Soldiers' Orphans, and her advice had great weight in its organ- 
ization and management. In 1877 she moved her own house- 
hold to Spiceland to find better educational advantages. 

Impressed by the importance of good environment in the 
bringing up of children, she asked the commissioners of Henry 
County to change their methods with pauper children, — to take 
them from the poor-house and give them to her to train. Pend- 
ing their decision upon her request, she planned a home for feeble- 



Fourth Generation. 123 

minded children, which, as the Knightstown Home for the Feeble- 
minded, stands to-day as the result of her efforts. After two 
years' consideration, the county decided to give its pauper chil- 
dren into her charge, allowing her the munificent sum of twenty- 
three cents a day for each child. So earnest was she in her 
desire to help these poor waifs, that she accepted the terms, until 
the commissioners were moved to give a more just allowance. 
The value of this plan having been proved, it resulted in similar 
homes throughout the state. Her success with children was due 
to her love for them and her understanding of child-nature, and 
her hold upon their affection never waned, so that grey-haired 
men, revisiting the Knightstown Home, are still proud to intro- 
duce themselves as " Miss Fussell's boys." 

Her death was mourned by hundreds, and by none more 
sincerely than by those who had once enjoyed her care. She 
had been elected an honorary member of one of the Grand Army 
Posts, and six of its members acted as pall-bearers at her funeral. 

Ada Fussell also devoted the greater part of her life to others. 
She had a harmonizing disposition that made her everywhere 
beloved, and to this was added a sense of humor that brightened 
the most adverse circumstances. She became a teacher, winning 
the love and confidence of her pupils by her tact, firmness, and 
regard for their best welfare. By her refining and uplifting 
influence over the children she sometimes changed the character of 
a whole neighborhood. 

She studied the Kindergarten system, and from this was led to 
the study of art. In this she found new inspiration and was 
looking forward to a happy future devoted to its cultivation, when 
her sister Susan's failing health called her to Spiceland. Setting 
aside her own inclinations, she loyally took up the work of the 
Home, and few, not even her sister, guessed the sacrifice of her 
ambition. After her sister's death she carried on the work until 
it was moved elsewhere, when she devoted herself to the care of

her farm, and the encouragement of the movements for temper- 
ance, peace, and other good causes. 

Both sisters were birthright members of the Society of 
Friends, and are laid side by side in Fall Creek Burying-ground. 
Their lives are an illustration of the good that may be accom- 
plished by a quiet perseverance in fulfilling the duty that lies 
nearest. — G. L.

In 1800, the two ferries between Trenton and Morrisville 
fell into possession of John Longstreth (3-5) and Samuel 
Spencer. One of these ferries was the oldest on the Delaware, 
being in existence half a century before Penn's arrival, on the 
great highway of travel between the Swedish settlements on the 
lower Delaware, and the Dutch in New York. Much of the land 
on the Pennsylvania side was owned by Robert Morris, financier 
of the Revolution, from whom the town took its name. After 
his death, his real estate was sold to George Clymer and Thomas 
Fitzsimmons, both signers of the Declaration of Independence; 
the ferry and landing was sold by them to John Longstreth and 
Samuel Spencer. ^

Comly, b. ; d. Aug. 20, 1834, at Massillon. 

Dr. Michener was a man of unusual intellect. He lived in 
Massillon, afterwards moving to north-western Illinois, and from 
there to Dallas County, la., in 1853. His life in Iowa was that of 
a student and recluse. He wrote for various papers, mostly medi- 
cal journals. He was an ardent believer in the doctrines of " in- 
fidelism " which was much discussed at that time, and a follower 
and correspondent of Robert Ingersoll. His views caused him 
to be much misjudged, and so he withdrew more and more from 
contact with the people about him, though he was greatly loved 
and admired by those who knew him well. The doctrine of 
evolution received his unqualified indorsement, and he spent much 
effort in making it known. His love for the physical sciences and 
mental philosophy was passionate and unwavering; but to him, 
the omnipotent power in the world was only the working of 
Nature's laws. He had the moral courage to stand for these 
convictions, and lived and died a philosopher. 

He was entirely a self-educated man. When young, he en- 
gaged to teach a country school in western Pennsylvania, and was 
told that he would have one pupil in English Grammar, — a sub- 
ject which he had never studied. Buying a grammar, (which is 
now in possession of his granddaughter,) he studied ahead of his 
pupil, and successfully filled the requirements of his position. 
When about twenty, he went to Canton, O., where he studied 
medicine, teaching a school, meanwhile, to pay his way. In Iowa

he wrote a grammar himself, and in his home town he was an 
undisputed authority on EngHsh. He practised his profession 
very little after moving to Iowa, and never held any public office, 
being one who courted retirement. He had good financial ability 
and amassed a considerable fortune through land investments. 

He is buried in the Odd Fellows' Cemetery at Adel, which is 
on land that he presented to the Lodge for a burial ground.

Daniel Longstreth lived at the old Homestead, which he in- 
herited from his father. He received a good English education, 
but his study did not end with his school days. Being fond of 
mathematics and natural sciences, he studied along these lines 
all his life, becoming an unusually well-informed man for that 
time. He had a fine mind, and a faculty for patient investigation ; 
and he felt a scholarly pleasure in the results of his researches. 
He kept a letter-book in which he made copies of all important 
letters which he wrote ; an example of his easy epistolary style is 
given in Appendix E. He kept also a commonplace-book or 
diary, in which he noted everything that especially interested him, 
occasionally contributing articles on these subjects to magazines 
and newspapers. He was, besides, devoted to genealogical and 
antiquarian researches, preserving many papers and recording 
many facts belonging to the past, as well as keeping notes of cur- 
rent family events which have been of inestimable value in compil- 
ing this book. His own opinion of the value of such studies is 
worthy of quotation. " These pursuits have afforded me great 
amusement in spare moments. Many wiseacres may think them 
puerile and trifling. Be it so ; but I am of opinion that anecdotes 
which disclose the virtuous actions of our worthy ancestors should

He was the son of John and Ann (Knowles) Lancaster, grandson of Thomas

— Letter to a friend. 

His love of local history, his regard for scientific pursuits, 
and his sympathy for an unfortunate man of genius whose merits 
seemed to have been overlooked and forgotten, all combined to 
excite in him a deep interest in " poor John Fitch, of steamboat 
memory," who had built the model of his first boat in 1785 quite 
near the old farm. Daniel Longstreth was actively engaged in 
1833 in collecting materials for a memoir of Fitch. He published 
a series of articles concerning him in a Bucks County newspaper, 
and corresponded on the subject with John F. Watson, author of 
Annals of Philadelphia, to whom he furnished most of the 
material used by him in his work. Thompson Westcott also ob- 
tained part of his material from Daniel Longstreth's papers for 
his " Life of John Fitch." 

Daniel Longstreth was a valued member of the Society of 
Friends; from 1829 to 1836, he was clerk of Horsham Monthly 
Meeting. He was also clerk of Abington Quarterly Meeting. 
In 1840 he opened at his house a boarding school for boys, which 
he conducted successfully for several years in connection with 
farming; the confinement proving injurious to his health, how- 
ever, he was obliged to close the school. He afterwards gained a 
knowledge of dentistry, which he practiced very successfully. He 
understood surveying, and his services were frequently in demand 
as surveyor and conveyancer. Being of well recognized probity, 
he was often asked to act in the settlement of estates and in a 
variety of public afifairs.

She was a well educated and capable woman, of a loving, 
helpful, and sympathetic disposition. For some time previous to 
her marriage she was clerk of Green Street Monthly Meeting; 
aftrwards, she was clerk of Abington Monthly Meeting for sev- 
eral years, until she moved to Philadelphia, in i860. She took 
great interest in the early anti-slavery movement; and the old 
Homestead became one of the stations of the " Underground 
Railway;" she assisted Benjamin Lundy in the preparation of his 
" Memoirs of Elizabeth Margaret Chandler," a poet deeply in- 
terested in the cause of the slave.

Jane L. Price in her early days in Ohio learned the trade of 
milliner ; in the midst of her pioneer surroundings she developed 
advanced tastes, being passionately fond of reading, and writing 
verse that showed taste and ability. A collection of her poems 
was published about 1850, a few copies of which are preserved in 
the family. She was brought up as a Friend, but she, with her 
husband united with the Disciples' Church, in which he was an 
eloquent minister for more than forty years. 

Dr. Pinkerton was a practising physician in Coshocton 
County, O., taking care of a large practice for almost sixty years, 
until failing health obliged him to retire. His wealth consisted 
mainly of the esteem of his community, and a few hundred acres 
of land. Like his wife, he was a great student of the Bible, and 
could repeat long portions of it by heart.

For a short time after finishing her studies, Elizabeth Long-

always retained a feeling of great attachment to their beloved 
Miss Elizabeth. Blessed with a lovely disposition, she made 

* Israel W. Morris was a descendant of Anthony Morris, one of the early 
settlers of Philadelphia. Anthony Morris was born in Stepney, London, 1654, the 
son of Anthony Morris, a sea captain. The son early joined the Friends, and 
sailed for America with his wife and child in 1682, bearing a certificate to 
the friends and brethren in Burlington. He soon moved to Philadelphia, 
where he became an influential citizen. In 1698 he was one of the founders 
of the William Penn Charter School. He held many public offices, — alderman, 
justice of the peace, which gave him a place on the bench of the Philadelphia 
Courts, member of the Assembly, mayor of the city, alderman again from 1704 
till his death, 1721. He was a brewer, an occupation not inconsistent in 
colonial days with the dignity of a minister in the meeting. 

His son Anthony, bom in London, 1682, died 1763, followed his father's 
business, and was interested also in iron. He was member of the Common 
Council, and of the Assembly, overseer of the school, alderman, and mayor 
in 1738. He married Phoebe Guest, daughter of George and Alice Guest, in 
1704. 

His son, Anthony, born 1706, kept up the family business, was overseer of 
the school, and one of the founders of the Pennsylvania Hospital. He married 
first Sarah, daughter of Samuel and Abigail Powell. 

His son, Samuel, bom 1734, was prominent in commercial, social and public 
life. He signed the " NonTmportation Act " in 1765; as Captain of the First 
City Troop, he led that famous command in the battles of Trenton, Princeton, 
Brandywine, and Germantown. He was member of the Committee of Safety, 
1775, and served several terms in the Assembly. He married Rebecca, daughter 
of Caspar and Katherine Wistar. — " The Morris Family," Robert C.

friends wherever she went ; and both at home and abroad, every- 
one was attracted to her, and all who knew her were helped 
by her love, sympathy and good judgment. In her own home, 
although physically never very strong, her uniform cheerfulness 
was a constant blessing. She was indeed one of whom it could 
well be said, " The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her," 
and, " She looked well to the ways of her household." 

Israel Morris received his education at Westtown Boarding 
School and at John Gummere's school in Burlington. He then 
learned the trade of pattern-maker, with the intention of joining 
his brother, Levi Morris, in his machine shop, then located on 
Market Street above Schuylkill Seventh, now Sixteenth Street; 
but relinquishing that purpose, he undertook the business in iron, 
steel and coal, which had been started by his brother Henry Mor- 
ris, at the southwest corner of Market and Schuylkill Seventh 
Streets. He afterwards associated with himself Jacob P. Jones 
and Richard H. Downing, and the business was carried on sue- 
as early as 1022. Valentine Hollingsworth, the emigrant, bom 1632, belonged 
to an Irish branch of the family. He was an early convert to the doctrines 
of George Fox. In 1682 he sailed with his family, and settled on a tract of 
nearly a thousand acres in Delaware. He was early sought out for public office: 
he was justice of the peace in New Castle County, and served several terms in 
the Assembly of Pennsylvania. 

His son, Henry Hollingsworth, born 1658, lived for a time in New Castle, 
and was a member of the Assembly. He moved to Chester County, Pa., where 
he was clerk of the Court, and also tax collector, coroner, and deputy surveyor. 
About 1712, he went to Maryland, and was commissioned by Lord Baltimore as 
surveyor of Cecil County. 

His son Zebulon, bom 1696, owned much land in Cecil County; he mar- 
ried Ann, daughter of Colonel Francis Mauldon. 

His son, Levi Hollingsworth, born 1739, came to Philadelphia, and soon 
became a prominent man of affairs. He was one of the founders of the First 
City Troop, and was its first quartermaster, taking part in the battles of 
Trenton and Princeton. The night after the latter, finding his quarters in a 
farmhouse unpleasant, he crawled into a conrcrib in the barnyard. Hearing a 
step, he called, "Who goes there? " and was answered by General Washing- 
ton, who said, " Mr. Hollingsworth, you and I have been well enough brought 
up to prefer clean straw to dirty beds," and crawled in also, and spent the 
rest of the night there. 

Levi Hollingsworth married, 1768, Hannah, daughter of Stephen and 
Martha (Humphreys) Paschall; their daughter Mary married Israel Wistar 
Morris.—" Old Philadelphia Families," Frank Willing Leach.

cessfully for a number of years under the name of Morris and 
Jones and Company. He was deeply interested in the develop- 
ment of the American manufacture of iron, though, during his 
business life, the principal supply of iron and steel was derived 
from England. 

In i860, Israel Morris gave up his interest in the iron busi- 
tiess to his sons ; it still continues as the firm of Morris, Wheeler 
and Company. His withdrawal from business, however, did not 
mean his withdrawal from active life, for he continued to take an 
interest in all that pertained to the duties of a citizen, not only of 
Philadelphia, but also of the State and of the country. He was 
strongly devoted to the cause of the Union through all the trying 
days of the Civil War, and was one of the earlier members of the 
Union League. He was for many years a director in the Bank 
of North America, in the Provident Life and Trust Company, 
and in the American Fire Insurance Company, withdrawing only 
because of advancing years. He was also one of the founders 
of the Philadelphia City Institute, a free library and reading room 
at Eighteenth and Chestnut Streets ; in this useful institution he 
retained his interest throughout his life. He died at the age of 
ninety-four, in full possession of all his faculties, enjoying the 
respect of all his associates, the affection of all his friends, and 
the love of his children. He and his wife were both members 
of Twelfth Street Meeting, and lived for many years at Twelfth 
and Arch Streets.

in Friends' Southwestern Burying-ground ; m. at Mt. Holly, 
N. J., Nov. 16, 1848, Abby Ann Taylor, daughter of Benjamin 
and Sarah Millhouse (Brantingham) Taylor, b. Apr. 10, 1829; 
d. at " Ingleside," Dec. 11, 1902. 

William C. Longstreth shared the intellectual gifts that were 
so marked in his immediate family. Under the tutorship of his 
sister, Mary Anna, he began studying Latin at the age of six, and 
at eight was reading Virgil. At twelve he entered Haverford 
Preparatory School, and in 1838 was graduated with honors from 
Haverford College. He chose farming as his vocation, and in 
1842 bought Locust Grove, a fine farm of sixty acres in Spring- 
field, Delaware County, where he made a specialty of dairy farm- 
ing. Here he remained until 1858, when an injury caused by a 
fall from the hay-mow made it impossible to continue farm life. 
He became secretary and treasurer of the Williamsport and 
Elmira Railroad. Locust Grove was sold, and the family moved 
to Greenway Farm, Kingsessing, the former home of his aunt, 
Susanna Longstreth. After living here nine years, he built his 
house, " Ingleside," on Gray's Lane near Springfield Avenue ; 
this remained the family home until the death of his wife, when 
the property was sold. The house, like so many other country- 
seats near town, has fallen a victim to the expansion in building 
operations, and streets and rows of houses have sprung up on his 
estate. 

In 1865 he was elected vice-president of the Provident Life 
and Trust Company, a banking house incorporated in that year 
by several members of the Society of Friends. This position he 
held during his life, continuing at the same time his connection 
with the railroad company. 

Exacting as were his duties in these two offices, he was not 
engrossed by them to the exclusion of social service. Finding 
that there was need of an elevating influence in his neighborhood. 



i66 The Longstreth Family Records. 

he established Greenway Union Sabbath School, with non-sec- 
tarian services. This school, with its various activities — mothers' 
meetings, sewing-school, reading-room, and temperance society 
— became a great power for good. 

He was a minister in Darby Meeting, and for many years 
a member of the Board of Managers of Haverford College. At 
the time of his death, Thomas Chase, president of the College, 
wrote of him : " No man that I ever knew exemplified more fully 
in his domestic life the beauty of holiness. He was a model of 
every Christian grace, and indeed, a living epistle. Wherever 
he went he bore by word and deed an unfailing testimony for his 
Lord and Master, and commended the doctrine he professed by 
his constant courtesy, cheerfulness, and kindliness. He carried 
sunshine with him and his presence was a continual benediction." 

His wife was in every sense a fitting helpmeet for him. The 
tribute paid to him by President Chase would with equal truth 
apply to her. She spent herself in doing good, and was known 
and loved by the whole neighborhood. In her mission work 
among the poor she gave with wisdom, she aided with cheerful- 
ness, she admonished with kindness. In social intercourse she 
spoke only of the good in her friends ; their faults, if she recog- 
nized any, were passed over in silence. So overflowing with 
goodness was her own heart that it called out all the goodness 
in others, and petty and ungenerous thoughts withered in the 
kindly atmosphere which she created about her.

Richard Price was for nearly half a century one of the fore- 
most merchants of Philadelphia. He was esteemed for his in- 
tegrity, and loved for his kindness, which he showed by many 
deeds of quiet benevolence. He was a member of the Society of 
Friends, both he and his wife belonging to Cherry Street Meet- 
ing, where his wide business experience was of great value in its 
temporal affairs. For about thirty years he was a member of 
the school committee of the meeting. As a member of City Coun- 
cils, he was efficient and methodical, carrying out many reforms 
for the betterment of the city. He was also interested in benevo- 
lent societies and public institutions, among these being the 
Prison Society and the Pennsylvania Institution for the Instruc- 
tion of the Blind, of which he was one of the first contributors 
and a member of the first Board of Managers.

4-155. MORRIS LONGSTRETH HALLOWELL, b. 
Aug. 14, 1809; d. near Media, Pa., June 16, 1880, buried in South 
Laurel Hill Cemetery; m. at Cherry Street Meeting, Jan. 5, 1831, 
Hannah Smith Penrose, daughter of William and Annah (Nor- 
wood) Penrose,^ b. Feb. 2, 1812; d. in Philadelphia, Oct. 15, 
1899. 

Morris L. Hallowell was born at Jenkintown, and educated at 
Westtown Boarding School. His father died when he was only 
nineteen, leaving the care of the family largely upon his shoul- 
ders. He continued his father's business of silk importer, the 
firm becoming Morris L. Hallowell and Company, and carrying 
on a large trade with the South and West. His business ability 
was extended to other interests ; he was largely instrumental in 
starting a line of first-class steamships between Charleston and 
Savannah ; he was a director of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com- 
pany, and it is said on good authority that the first meeting to or- 
ganize that company was held in his parlor, though there are no 
minutes that verify the statement. He was four times elected 
director of the Bank of North America. He held various offices 
in Race Street Meeting, and in 1844 was appointed on a com- 
mittee to confer with other meetings in regard to education, — a 
conference which led to the establishment of the Friends' Central 
School. 

' The Penrose family is descended from Bartholomew Penrose, son of 
Bartholomew and Dorothy Penrose, of Bristol, England, baptized in St. 
Stephen's Parish, January 21, 1673-4. He was a shipwright, came to Philadel- 
phia about 1700, established his shipyard, and gained a comfortable fortime 
by his trade and shipping interests. He married about 1703 Hester, daughter 
of Tobias Leech, who came to Philadelphia in 1682, died in 1711, and is buried 
at old Christ Church. 

Bartholomew and Hester Penrose had four children: Dorothy married 
Isaac Shoemaker, son of George and Sarah (Wain) Shoemaker (see 4-166) ; 
Sarah married Richard Mather, son of Joseph and Elizabeth (Russell) Mather 
(see 3-57) ; Bartholomew married Mary Kirll (see 4-219) ; Thomas, born 1710, 
married 1731, Sarah; daughter of John and Mary (Heele) Coats. 

Thomas Penrose, like his father, was a shipbuilder and merchant. He

Fourth Generation. 175 

Although much of his business prosperity depended on the 
South, because of his southern trade, he never allowed this to 
warp his convictions about slavery. When the controversy be- 
tween North and South was waxing hot, he told one of his cus- 
tomers who asked him to declare his position regarding it, that 
anyone who demanded to know the views of the firm upon slavery 
or any other mooted question in religion or politics, could not pur- 
chase from them on any terms until he had apologized for the 
insult. This independence resulted in a great falling off of 
southern trade, and when the war broke out the southern mer- 
chants repudiated their northern debts, so forcing the firm into 
liquidation. The work of a lifetime was swept away, and his 
country home, " Norwood," on Washington Lane, had to be 
given up.^ He met the blow with courage, regarding it as a sac- 
rifice to patriotism, and set to work to reorganize. 

Not only in his business, but in his family, did he uphold the 
Union cause; three of his sons went to the front, a fourth was 
active in recruiting work, while his family were untiring in hos- 
pital work, and in their own home, which was a resting place for 
wounded soldiers on their way to homes farther north. A picture 
of this kindly care is found in the sketch of Dr. Oliver Wendell 
Holmes, " My Hunt After the Captain," the " Captain " being his 
son, now Judge Holmes, a classmate of Norwood P. Hallowell 

attended Christ Church, and helped to establish the branch parish of St. 
Peter's. 

His son Thomas, b. 1733-4, divided his time between shipbuilding and com- 
merce. He was one of the signers of the " Non-importation Agreement " in 
1765, and was a member of the committee that called into being the Provincial 
Convention of July 15, 1774. He married in 1757, Ann, daughter of Joseph 
and Ann (Richardson) Dowling. 

Their son, William Penrose, died 1816, married in Boston, 1795, Annah, 
daughter of Ebenezer and Abigail (Emmes) Norwood, born 1778, died 1817. 
Both are buried at Arch Street Meeting.—" History of the Penrose Family," 
Josiah Granville Leach, LL.D. Philadelphia, 1903. 

^ " Norwood " passed into possession of Mrs. John Butler in 1859. After 
her death, the Rev. Samuel Clements, D.D., became its owner, and founded 
there the Cheltenham Academy. The school is still continued as the Chelten- 
ham Military Academy. 



176 The Longstreth Family Records. 

at Harvard. Captain Holmes was wounded at the battle of 
Antietam, and his father, starting out to find him, on reaching 
Philadelphia " went straight to the house on Walnut Street, 
where the Captain would be heard of if anywhere in this region. 
His lieutenant-colonel was there, gravely wounded; his college 
friend and comrade in arms, a son of the house, was there, in- 
jured in a similar way ; another soldier, brother of the last, was 
there prostrated with fever. A fourth bed was waiting ready 
for the Captain, but not one word had been heard of him." Dr. 
Holmes, pursuing his anxious search nearer the scene of the 
battle, still failed to find his son ; then, persuading himself that 
he had missed him somewhere, he turned back to Philadelphia. 
" The Captain was, no doubt, snugly lodged before this in the 
house called Beautiful, at . . . Walnut Street, where that ' grave 
and beautiful damsel named Discretion ' had already welcomed 
him, smiling, though ' the water stood in her eyes,' and had 
' called out Prudence, Piety and Charity, who, after a little more 
discourse with him, had him into the family.' " 

Soon after the war, Morris L. Hallowell entered into part- 
nership with his son in New York, as wool commission mer- 
chants. In 1870 he returned to Philadelphia and established in 
1873 the banking house of Hallowell and Company, with his 
nephew, Charles Hallowell. He was elected a member of the 
Stock Exchange in 1874. 

His death took place at his country home near Media. At 
that time not only the Philadelphia newspapers, but the Boston 
papers as well, paid high tribute to his business ability, his ster- 
ling integrity, and his noble patriotism. His home life was par- 
ticularly beautiful ; and his genial, generous, and upright nature 
left a deep impress upon all who came into either business or 
social relations with him.

Anna Hallowell devoted so much of her life to philanthropy, 
that it is hard to do justice to all the good works that she in- 
augurated or fostered. She was educated in Mary Anna Long- 
streth's School, where her natural bent for charitable and scholar- 
ly interests was strengthened. Her close association with her 
father trained her mind to see clearly, to think straight, and to 
act with courage. When only fifteen she began a work looked 
upon then as of questionable expediency — the instruction of col- 
ored children in the " three R's." When this little school was 
given up she went into the work of an evening school for colored 
youth, where she taught several times a week. This led to her 
appointment as secretary of the Board of Managers of the Home 
for Destitute Colored Children. Another evidence of her inde- 
pendence of character was her support of Ann Preston, the first 
woman physician to practice in Philadelphia, who was frowned 
upon by unprogressive people. Becavise of this interest, she was 
appointed on the first Board of Managers of the Woman's Medi- 
cal College and the Woman's Hospital. She showed the bravery 
of her anti-slavery convictions by attending the exciting trial of 
Daniel Dangerfield, a fugitive slave, where for days she sat in 
the court room beside Lucretia Mott, encouraging the prisoner, 
and protesting against the Fugitive Slave Law. 

During the war, she presided over the hospital organized in 



178 The Longstreth Family Records. 

her father's house. After the war, her activities fell into two 
groups — organized charity and education. She became a mem- 
ber of the Board of Visitors of the Seventh Ward, and later one 
of the first women on the Central Board of Organized Charity. 
She founded in 1882, with the aid of friends, the Children's Aid 
Society, of which she was president for many years. She also 
aided in reclaiming St. Mary's Street, and establishing in that 
once dark spot Starr Garden and Starr Garden Center. The 
State Board of Charities appointed her in 1882 chairman of the 
committee of women visitors for Philadelphia, a post she held 
seventeen years. 

Yet still closer to her heart was the work of education. She 
was invited by the Board of Education to aid in selecting the first 
sewing teacher for the Philadelphia Normal School. This was 
the beginning of hand-teaching in the school. In 1879, she es 
tablished the first free kindergarten, which was supported by 
private contributions ; others followed, but not till 1887 did the 
kindergartens become incorporated with the school system. She 
was then appointed a member of the Board of Education — the 
first, and for two years, the only, woman on the Board, where 
she served fourteen years. It was she who secured the intro- 
duction of manual training into the schools which led to the 
establishing of the Manual Training Schools. 

Through her efforts the Harvard College Examinations for 
Women were brought to Philadelphia in 1877, and she was ap- 
pointed secretary. In 1894 she became chairman of the educa- 
tional department of the newly-founded Civic Club. 

Shortly after her death a memorial meeting was held at the 
Philadelphia Normal School, where were gathered to do her 
honor representatives of the Board of Education, Bryn Mawr 
College, Drexel Institute, the Kindergarten Union, the Manual 
Training School, the Public Education Association, the Society 
for Organized Charity, the State Board of Charities, the Civic

Club, the Visiting Nurse Society, and the Children's Aid Society. 
As one associate followed another in telling various aspects of her 
work, there was outlined a character of rare and beautiful quali- 
ties, which, with her winning dignity of manner, made her vic- 
torious in her battles for social progress. 

Emily Hallowell has always been especially interested in 
education, and for some time occasionally taught in an inter- 
rupted way. In 1879 she opened with Frances E. Case, the Case 
and Hallowell School for girls. The school was continued for 
many years, during which it was very successful. It included a 
College Preparatory Course, and bore a high reputation for 
scholarly work. 

Susan M. Hallowell has devoted much time to philanthropic 
works. When the Philadelphia Society for Organized Charity 
was started, she served for several years as one of the women 
visitors in the Seventh Ward; from 1883 to 1892 she was a mem- 
ber of the Board of Managers of the Children's Aid Society and 
Bureau of Information of the State of Pennsylvania. 

Emily and Susan M. Hallowell live in Philadelphia.

Charles M. Walton was a member of the firm of Guillon, 
Walton and Company, importers of Hnens and housekeeping dry- 
goods ; but in a few years his health obliged him to withdraw 
from business. As his tastes were literary, he entered Harvard 
College, class of 1861. The New England climate and his close 
application to study proved, however, too great a strain, and he 
was obliged to give up his college course. He travelled in Italy 
and southern France, but found there no permanent benefit. On 
the voyage he was a fellow-passenger with Charles Dickens, and 
his intercourse with him on shipboard furnished material for his 
sketch, " With Dickens Aboard," published in Lippincott's Maga- 
zine. Other articles from his pen were published in the New 
York Tribune and in Boston papers. 

In the Civil War, although his health prevented his volun- 
teering for regular service, he enlisted in the Pennsylvania State 
Militia, in Landis's Battery. During the Confederate raid into 
Pennsylvania in 1863 he accompanied the battery to the front and 
was under fire at Carlisle. At Harvard he had been a class-mate 
of Oliver Wendell Holmes's son, and he and Dr. Holmes became 
very congenial friends. In " My Hunt After the Captain," Dr. 
Holmes writes : " Charley said he would go with me — Charley, 
my Captain's beloved friend, gentle, but full of spirit and liveli- 
ness, cultivated, social, affectionate, a good talker, a most agree- 
able letter-writer, observing, with large relish of life, and keen 
sense of humor. He was not well enough to go, some of the

in an hour or two we were on the Pennsylvania Railroad in full 
blast for Harrisburg."

health was failing, he returned to Philadelphia, where he died. 
His family remained in California, but knowledge of them has 
been lost by their relatives.

Joshua L. Hallowell was obliged by his father's death to be- 
gin his business career very early. When about twelve years old 
he entered the employ of Caleb Cope & Company, importers and 
jobbers of silks and dress goods. After many years he was ad- 
mitted into the firm. He later became a partner in the house 
of Morris L. Hallowell and Co., in the same line of business. The 
hardships which this firm suflfered at the time of the Civil War

because of its patriotism have already been rehearsed. The strain 
of events connected with the failure of the firm, coming after long 
and close application to business, so greatly impaired his health 
that he was obliged to retire. 

He was straightforward and conscientious in all his dealings ; 
his views as to man's moral responsibilities were of the highest 
standard ; his name stood as a synonym for integrity. He was 
closely identified with the early abolitionists, William Lloyd Gar- 
rison, Wendell Phillips, James and Lucretia Mott ; and by his aid, 
many a slave was aided to freedom via the Underground Rail- 
road.

Joshua L. Hallowell married second, Feb. 21, 1855, Sarah 
Catharine Fraley, daughter of Frederick and Jane (Cresson) 
Fraley,^ b. July 8, 1833. 

The marriage, which was according to Friends' ceremony, 
took place at the house of her father, Hon. Frederick Fraley, in 
the presence of the Mayor of Philadelphia, Hon. Robert T. Con- 
rad. 

^ Frederick Fraley was bom in Philadelphia in 1804, of Swiss and English 
stock. He early studied law, but soon turned to mercantile pursuits. He in- 
terested himself in public movements, and was prominent among the founders 
of the Franklin Institute, acting for many years as treasurer. He was elected 
to Councils in 1834, and as chairman of the finance committee instituted meas- 
ures which saved the city from insolvency in 1837, during the panic which 
followed the closing of the United States Bank. He was elected to the State 
Senate in 1837. He acted on the committee which prepared the plan for the 
consolidation of the city in 1853. He was one of the founders of the Union 
League, and for several years was president of the American Philosophical 
Society. He served as Director of Girard College, t'.ie Institution for the Blind, 
the Apprentices', and INTercantile Libraries. 

But it is as a financier that he was best known. In 1840 he was elected

After her husband's death, Sarah C. F, Hallowell devoted 
herself to journaHsm. In 1876 she became editor-in-chief of 
The New Century for Woman, a newspaper published at the Cen- 
tennial Exposition during the six months it was open. The work 
on the paper was done entirely by women, with one exception — 
a pressman, who carried the forms to the press ; even the engineer 
was a woman. The Executive Committee of the Exposition was 
so well pleased with the exhibit that it made an appropriation of 
five hundred dollars a month towards the support of the enter- 
prise. 

Early in 1877 several of the women who had been identified 
with the newspaper came together and founded the New Century 
Club, Mrs. Hallowell being elected president. This is one of 
the earliest of women's clubs, and one of the most influential and 
progressive in the United States, standing behind many of the 
movements for social betterment, now spreading over the coun- 
try, especially such as look to improved conditions for women 
and children. 

Mrs. Hallowell's department of the club work for many years 
has been the Legal Protection Committee, of which she has al- 
ways been chairman. This committee gives aid to working 
women of all classes to secure money unjustly withheld by em- 
ployers or customers. 

In 1877 Mrs. Hallowell was tendered the position of Asso- 
ciate Editor of the Public Ledger, which she filled for nearly 
twenty years. She now lives in Germantown. 

secretary of the American Fire Insurance Company; in 1847, president of the 
Schuylkill Navigation Company; in 1878, president of the Western Saving 
Fund, an office he held until his death. He helped to organize the National 
Board of Trade in 1868 and was its president for over twenty-five years; he 
was secretary and treasurer of the Centennial Board of Finance which raised 
the millions necessary for the project. And when past eighty, his speech on 
coinage and the financial history of the countr>% made before the committee 
of Congress, is said to have been more influential than any other argument in 
preventing free silver legislation.

Joseph and Susanna (Cox) Parrish,^ b. Mar. 19, 181 1, in Phila- 
delphia; d. July 31, 1852. 

Sarah L. Parrish passed most of her life in Philadelphia, but 
for twelve years previous to her death she lived in New York. 
Throughout her long life she was the centre not only of her own 
family, but of a large circle of friends as well. 

Dr. Isaac Parrish began the study of medicine with his 
father, and was graduated from the University of Pennsylvania 
in 1832. Soon after this the cholera visited Philadelphia; his 
father was placed in charge of one of the hospitals, and Dr. Isaac 
Parrish was appointed one of his assistants. This position 
brought him into public notice, and in 1834, at the founding of 
the Wills Eye Hospital, he was elected one of the surgeons, a 
work to which he was ardently devoted for the rest of his life. 
He was an advocate of prison reform, opposing the solitary sys- 
tem of confinement as practiced in the Eastern Penitentiary, and 
urging the mental and physical benefits of the congregate system. 
He was a frequent contributor to medical journals, writing in a 
clear attractive style. As a lecturer he had the same clearness 

' Dr. Joseph Parrish, born 1779; died 1840, was one of Philadelphia's 
most distinguished physicians and surgeons. He took his medical degree in 
1805. In 1808 he married Susanna Cox, daughter of John Cox, of Burlington, 
N. J., an eminent minister in the Society of Friends. Dr. Parrish's success 
was rapid, and in 1816 he succeeded Dr. Physick as surgeon of the Pennsylvania 
Hospital, holding this position for thirteen years. Dr. Parrish took a deep 
interest in all benevolent movements; he was long a member of the Pennsyl- 
vania Abolition Society, and latterly its president. It was at his home that 
John G. Whittier, then editor of the "Pennsylvania Freedman," was staying 
when Pennsylvania Hall was burned by the mob, and it was in Dr. Parrish's 
coat and wig that Whittier stood to watch the destruction of that building, 
with most of the property of the Abolition Society. — See " Literary History of 
Philadelphia." Ellis Paxson Oberholtzer.

of style, and his lectures and clinics were largely attended. He 
was noted for great moral firmness, never deviating from what 
he believed right. In his profession he was untiring in his min- 
istrations to the poor. He was a member of the Society of 
Friends, and made a point of arranging his duties so that they 
would not interfere with his regular attendance at meeting. He 
was a member of the College of Physicans of Philadelphia ; the 
American Medical Association, which he helped to establish ; the 
Philadelphia Prison Society, and the Abolition Society. His 
death resulted from his attendance on his son who was danger- 
ously ill at Christiana, Pa. The death of father and son occurred 
at the same hour.^

to the New York Bar in 1877. He lives at Southampton, Long 
Island, where in 1897, he founded the Southampton Art Museum. 
The museum is auxiliary to the Public School and Library, and 
is intended to give to the people, particularly the young people, 
the opportunity of artistic study. It contains reproductions of 
the Bayeux Tapestry, the royal effigies from the tombs of West- 
minster Abbey and Canterbury Cathedral, paintings by famous 
artists, and antique and renaissance sculptures. The collections, 
building and grounds are indicative of the artistic feeling, as 
well as of the public spirit, of the founder.

15, 1819; d. at Sharon Hill, Pa., Dec. 27, 1891 ; m. at Race Street 
Meeting, Jan. 25, 1843, Mary Tyson Clapp, daughter of Enoch 
and Mary (Tyson) Clapp,^ b. Nov. 28, 1817, in Boston; d. at 
Sharon Hill, Mar. 22, 1890. 

Miers Fisher Longstreth was educated at Clermont Boarding 
School, and at a classical academy. He started business life in a 
hardware store on Market Street, in which he became a partner 
in 1840. Throughout his years in business he pursued his studies, 
attending evening lectures in anatomy, and taking one course at 
the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. Astronomy was one of 
his favorite subjects, and he carried on his studies with his own 
instruments in the observatory of the Friends' Central School. 
His close, earnest work resulted in a notable benefit to the as- 
tronomical world ; for his discovery of inaccuracies of the tabular 
longitude of the moon led to the construction of new lunar tables 
in 185 1, which were used in the preparation of the American 
Nautical Almanac; this service placed him among the eminent 
scientists of the time. 

In 1853 he withdrew from business and entered the Medical 
Department of the University of Pennsylvania, from which he 
was graduated in 1856. 

Being by nature a student, he was always interested in edu- 
cation. He was among the first who took an active part in the 

' Enoch Clapp was descended from Captain Roger Clapp, who emigrated 
in the ship " Mary and John," 1630, with the first settlers of Dorchester, Mass. 
He was Lieutenant of the Dorchester Company, Massachusetts Militia, and 
Captain of " The Castle," now Ft. Independence, in Boston Harbor. In 1655 
he became Lieutenant of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery. 

He was a typical Puritan, and warns his children to beware of the mis- 
chievous teaching of the Quakers, in whose persecution he took an active part. 

Mary Tyson ^vas a descendant of George and Sarah Schumacher, who 
came from the States Palatine in Germany, sailing from London, arriving in 
Philadelphia, 1686. He was a brother of Peter Schumacher. (See 4-39.)

where she settled with her children.

Friends' Central School ; he was interested in the work of the 
Friends' School at Darby, and was treasurer of the public schools 
of Darby Township for twenty-five years. Two years after the 
opening of Swarthmore College he became a member of the 
Board of Managers, and soon afterwards was made its secre- 
tary — an office which he retained until his death. He also served 
on several of the committees, notably on the Committee of In- 
struction. 

In 1855 he moved to Sharon Hill, near Darby, where he 
passed the rest of his life. He built there a fine colonial mansion, 
with an astronomical observatory on the roof. In this country 
home he practiced his profession in a quiet way, for he did not 
desire a large practice. His partial retirement gave him leisure 
for carrying on his studies along many lines in which he took 
pleasure. He belonged to several scientific societies, among them 
the American Philosophical Society, and was an original member 
of the National Academy of Sciences. After laying down his 
active duties, he found more time for the student life he loved, 
adding to his scientific researches the study of Hebrew, Arabic, 
and Syriac, increasing his library with rare books in these lan- 
guages. 

He was known far and near as a kind neighbor, ever ready 
to help in time of need ; yet so quiet and unassuming that few out- 
side his immediate circle knew of his profound scholarship, and 
of his devotion to progressive social movements. 

His wife was one of the early managers of Swarthmore Col- 
daughter of Richard, Jr., and Rachael Wain, of Cheltenham. Their son Isaac, 
born 1700, died 1741, married Dorothy, daughter of Bartholomew and Hester 
Penrose (see 4-155). He lived on York Road, north of Tacony Creek. In 1746 
his widow made an agreement with Richard Mather and John Tyson to build 
a mill on this land in partnership. This mill is at Ogontz, still in operation; 
it remained in the Shoemaker family for a centurj-. 

Their daughter, Esther Shoemaker, born 1732, died 1796, married, 1749, 
Isaac Tyson, nephew of John Tyson. 

Elisha Tys-on, their oldest son, bom 1750, died 1824, married, 1776, Mary 
daughter of William and Hannah Amos; and their daughter Mary, bom 
1785, married Enoch Clapp. — "' Genealogy of the Shoemaker Family of Chelten-

would permit. For many years she was a manager of the Home 
for Destitute Colored Children, before its removal to Fifty-fourth

of Darby Meeting.

^ Samuel Noble was descended from Abel Noble, the emigrant, bom 1665, 
son of William Noble, wire-drawer, of Bristol, England, one of the earliest 
followers of George Fox. Abel Noble came to America in 1684, and was appren- 
ticed to Nathaniel Allen, cooper. He acquired land in Warminster, Bucks 
County, which, with adjoining land owned by his father, made an estate of a 
thousand acres. According to Penn's agreement, the owner of a thousand 
acres of farm land was entitled to a city lot; and one on Chestnut Street waa 
surveyed to Abel Noble, 1 mo. 24, 1688. 

He married at Darby Meeting, 1692, Mary, daughter of William and Ann 
Garrett. He became a follower of George Keith, founder of the Seventh-day 
Baptists, who separated from Friends in 1691. — See " The Baptists in Amer- 
ica." Morgan Edwards, 1779. He was noted for his piety and good works. 
On his gate-posts he had carved, " A A without a clapper. No A about 
the matter." One son. Job, followed his father in rehgion and piety; hia 
fancy moved him to cut the Ten Commandments on his gate-posts.

man of the strictest integrity, and of the greatest firmness of 
character ; no motives of expediency or of self-interest could 
swerve him from any course which he believed right. He bore 
his testimony against war by refusing to pay war-taxes, although 
more than once he suffered arrest because of his refusal, and 
would have endured imprisonment had not some unknown friend 
each time paid the tax, and so secured his release. He was noted 
for hospitality, rarely sitting down to a meal without a guest ; 
during the Yearly Meeting gatherings sometimes fifty or sixty 
persons assembled daily at dinner. He was kind and charitable 
to all in need, and was especially helpful to young men starting 
out in business. He kept at his house a library of books on useful 
subjects which he lent to young men for a trifling fee, to encour- 
age in them habits of good reading and to help them in their vo- 
cations. 

In affairs of the meeting he took an active part, his capacity 
for business and his discretion causing his constant appointment 
on committees. For many years he distributed the fund for the 
care of needy members of the Society, with much prudence and 
delicacy. His benevolences were quiet and unostentatious, and 

Richard Smith of the New Jersey Assembly. He married second Mary, daugh- 
ter of Marmaduke and Ann Coat, -wndow of Caleb Raper. 

His son Samuel, born 1720. died 1787, married 1746, Lydia, daughter of 
Isaac and Hannah Cooper, of West Jersey. He was a tanner and currier, and 
lived at Second and Callowhill Streets. In a letter written to England in 1783, 
he says: " When thee writes, please direct at the upper end of Second Street, 
where we are much kno^\Ti." 

His son, Samuel Noble 2d, born 1766. died 1843, married, 1792, Elizabeth, 
daughter of Robert and Lydia Tomkins, of Northern Liberties, Philadelphia. 
Their marriage certificate is in possession of the compiler. He married second, 
Sarah Webster, and had two children. One of these, Samuel W. Noble, lived 
in Montgomerj' County; when the Bound Brook Railroad was opened through 
his farm, he gave the land on which Noble Station is built. 

Samuel Noble 2d was a tanner also, and o\viied a square of ground at 
Third and Noble. His tanneries were on Pegg's Run, then an open stream in 
Willow Street. At the marriage of his daughter Lydia, he gave her a piece 
of ground next his house, and did the same for his son Charles, all the houses 
enjoying in common the large garden which extended to the stables and tan- 
neries in the rear. — See " The Burlington Smiths," R. Morris Smith. Phila-

sometimes took an original form. Once a year he invited to din- 
ner all the widows of his meeting, who, from old age or infirmity, 
were habitually " shut in." He brought them in his carriage 
and took them home again before dark. The company often 
numbered thirty, and for some of the guests it was their only out- 
ing in the year — anticipated for months beforehand, and talked 
of for months afterward. One assumed condition of acceptance 
was that no guest should marry again within a year. By his 
daughters, who all inherited their father's quiet humor, this event 
was known as " The Butterflies' Ball." The following is a copy 
of an invitation written to the widow of his cousin, Daniel Long- 
streth (4-48) :

be entertained with any thing but is good and pleasant, the Rules 
are read up annually. A part I will write. No one is to dis- 
course of their own grievances or trials. No one is to tell of 
any sad or distressing story in relation to suffering humanity. 
No one is to detail the failings or faults of another. 

There are to be no secrets told, because there is no whisper- 
ing to be indulged in. It is intended for a day of rejoicing and 
of comfort, a jubilee. All are to wash and anoint, and none are 
to appear to fast. If sackcloth is in part the clothing, on this 
day it is to be worn underneath. Now for some of the blessed 
ones who meet with us it is a profitable season; to tell of noth- 
ing but pleasant things for a whole day is very strengthening.

Not infrequently he made long journeys for the purpose of 
visiting distant meetings, sometimes accompanied by his wife, 
and generally using his own carriage as conveyance. He once 
made a missionary journey to the West Indies, in company with 
John Jackson and George Truman, of which an account was pub- 
lished after their return.^ His folio letters written on this 
journey, and also the original drawings for illustration of the 
book, are in possession of the compiler. 

About 1840 he retired from active business. In 1861 he 
moved to Germantown, being early in the movement that changed 
that village into the largest suburb of Philadelphia. He built 
there a substantial stone house on East Walnut Lane, and in this 
house he passed the rest of his life, dispensing hospitality and 
rejoicing to gather about him his kindred of all degrees. After

of John and Lydia Barton (Price) Cooke,^ b. Sept. i, 1804; d. 
Nov. 30, 1872, both buried in Cathedral Cemetery, Philadelphia. 

Morris Longstreth, about 1825, entered into partnership with 
Morris W. Cooke, whose sister he afterwards married. Like his 
brother Thomas, he was much annoyed by the collector of militia 
taxes, who made himself very obnoxious to Friends. Having 
had a severe sprain, and being also near-sighted, he was exempt 
from military duty, but had failed to procure a certificate of 

' John Cooke was the son of John Cooke, a German of Lancaster County, 
Pa. The name was originally in the German form, Koch. John Cooke 2d, 
bom 1766, died 1828, was baptized in the Lutheran Church. He married Lydia 
Barton Price, of Chester, Pa., an Elpiscopalian; some years after their mar- 
riage both became Friends by conviction. Their daughters Mary and Lydia 
married half brothers, Morris Longstreth and Joseph Middleton. (See 3-70 
footnote). John Cooke 2d was a prosperous merchant of Philadelphia. 

Lydia Barton Price was the daughter of Elisha and Lydia (Barton) Price, 
granddaughter of John and Abigail Gatchell Price, great-granddaughter of 
Elisha Gatchell.

exemption. This collector once seized him and attempted to take 
him to prison, but was finally persuaded to take him first before a 
military officer, who ordered his immediate release. The collec- 
tor was determined to collect his fine ; he went to the store of 
Longstreth and Cooke, and seized the amount in goods, and noth- 
ing but the threat of arrest made him cease his persecutions. 

In 1835, Morris Longstreth decided to turn to farming, and 
made a trip by canal to Reading, looking for a suitable location. 
Finding nothing there that pleased him, he bought a farm of two 
hundred and forty acres called " Valley Green," in Whitemarsh 
Township, twelve miles north of Philadelphia. He moved there 
in 1837, and it remained his home for life. He spent much time 
studying agriculture, and carried on what is now called scientific 
farming. He gave great attention to breeding cattle, and his 
dairy farm was one of the finest in the State. His stock con- 
sisted entirely of Derby cattle, and he took pride in the claim 
that there was not a white hair in his whole herd. 

He took an active interest in politics, belonging to the 
Democratic party. When the government withdrew the deposits 
from the United States Bank, he was one of the few who sup- 
ported President Jackson, as he was opposed to an extensive 
banking system. In 1836 he was a candidate for Congress, but 
was defeated. In 1841 he was appointed by Governor Parker 
Associate Judge in Montgomery County. This office he filled 
with honor until January i, 1848, when he resigned because of his 
election as Canal Commissioner. Upon the resignation of Gov- 
ernor Shunk in 1848, he was nominated as Democratic candidate 
for Governor, and was defeated by only a few votes, running far 
ahead of his ticket. 

His duties as Canal Commissioner exposed him to unhealthy 
districts where malaria abounded ; this brought on disease from 
which he was never afterwards free. During his last illness.

he was received into the Roman Catholic Church, of which his 
wife had already become a member. 

He was a man of gentle and refined nature, which, com- 
bined with a delicate sense of humor, gave to his conversation 
a charm not easily forgotten. His sound judgment, unwavering 
justice, and adherence to principle, made him loved and respected 
by all. At his funeral high and low, rich and poor, assembled 
to do him honor, and the grief shown by some of his humble 
friends at his loss was pathetic in the extreme.

hurst, daughter of James and Ann (Carroll) Bringhurst,^ b. Oct. 
14, 1805 ; d. in Philadelphia, Sept. 26, 1835. 

' James Bringhurst was a descendant of John Bringhurst, of London, 
printer and publisher, born Nov. 1, 1655, whose family was of ancient resi- 
dence in Leicestershire, being descended from Robert de Bringhurst, who, 
prior to 1260 was lord of Broughton, Bringhurst, etc., and had holdings at 
Drayton, Holt, and Prestgrave. John Bringhurst, being a Friend, is said 
to have suffered persecution for his faith and to have gone to Holland, where 
his four children are believed to have been bom. He died in 1699, and his 
widow and children came to Philadelphia in 1701, or earlier. A son, John 
Bringhurst 2d, born 1691; died 1750, in the Island of Barbadoes, was a cooper 
and merchant in Philadelphia and served in several offices, one being over- 
seer of the school now known as the William Penn Charter School. He 
married in 1718 Mary, daughter of John Claypoole, who came to Philadel- 



198 The Longstreth Family Records. 

As a boy, William W. Longstreth entered the house of 
Evans Rogers, hardware merchant, and remained there until he 
went into business for himself on Market Street, in the same 
line of trade, the firm being Longstreth and Boldin. (See 4-142.) 
He became interested in coal transportation, and was elected 
President of the Beaver Meadow Coal and Railroad Co., bringing 
this corporation into a prosperous condition. The interests of 
this railroad being closely identified with the Lehigh V^alley Rail- 
road, it was merged with the latter in 1864, and William W. 
Longstreth was elected president of the consolidated companies. 
He held this office until 1868, when he resigned because of ill- 
health. As he was a large owner of Lehigh Valley stock and of 
coal lands operated by that road, he remained a member of the 
Board of Directors, and acted as chairman of its Finance Com- 
mittee until his death. 

He lived in Philadelphia, but during the latter years of his 
life passed his summers at his country seat, a farm of about one 
hundred and fifty acres in the Whitemarsh Valley, some two 
miles beyond Chestnut Hill.

James Bringhurst, son of John Bringhurst 2d, was born in 1730, and 
died at Portsmouth, R. I., in 1810. He married first Ann Pole, daughter 
of John Pole and Rachel Smith, one of the Burlington Smiths (see 4-173 foot- 
note). He was first a master-builder, afterwards a merchant; a member 
of the Carpenter's Company, of the American Philosophical Society, and a 
Contributor of the Pennsylvania Hospital. His son James, born 1766; died 
1818; was a merchant, afterwards a clerk in the United States Bank. James 
Bringhurst, Jr., was married twice, Ann Carroll being his second wife. —

William Longstreth was, until middle life, interested in saw 
and flour mills ; after that, he was chiefly engaged in raising fine 
fruit. He was a man of sterling character, a great lover of na- 
ture and of children. He maintained his connection with 
Friends, both his wives also being of Friendly descent. He 
showed his Friends' principles by being a warm advocate of the 
anti-slavery cause in the early days when such adherence meant 
great unpopularity.

2IO The Longstreth Family Records. 

John Sellers, Jr., coming of a family of mill-owners, early 
turned his attention to the milling business, which he carried on 
in partnership with his father. Wishing to travel, he started on 
a trip across the country by stage-coach in 1848. On reaching 
Cincinnati he remained for a time, and entered the employ of a 
prominent mill-owner ; later, he was appointed clerk in the La- 
fayette Bank of Cincinnati. After staying in that city about a 
year, he travelled farther west, returning to Philadelphia in 1849, 
where he established an iron foundry which he conducted suc- 
cessfully for many years. In 1853 he entered the firm of Ban- 
croft and Sellers, composed of his brother William and brother- 
in-law, Edward Bancroft, which built up an extensive business 
in the manufacture of machine tools. In 1885 the Millbourne 
Mills Company was incorporated and he became president, fill- 
ing this office until 1902, when he resigned. A new iron com- 
pany was formed in 1886, known as Wm. Sellers & Company, In- 
corporated, of which John Sellers, Jr., was elected vice-president 
and treasurer, ofiices which he held at the time of his death. He 
was also one of the incorporators of the Edgemoor Iron Com- 
pany, of Wilmington, Del., in 1869, and served as vice-president 
till 1901 ; he was also a director and extensive stockholder of the 
Midvale Steel Company. 

He took an active part in establishing The Nation, a weekly 

Anna, daughter of Henry and Eleanor Gibbons, from Parwich, Derbyshire. 
Their intentions of marriage are the first recorded in the minutes of Darby 
Meeting. 

Their son, Samuel, bom 1690, died 1773, married 1712, Sarah, daughter 
of John and Eleanor (Dolby) Smith, from Croxton, Leicestershire, born 1689, 
died 1778. He succeeded his father in trade and on the farm, and also held 
various local offices. In 1752 he conveyed to his son John, bom 1728, died 
1804, the homestead, " Sellers Hall," and one hundred thirty-four acres. 

John Sellers added more land, and utilized the water-power on his prop- 
erty for a saw-mill, a tilt-mill, and a grist-mill, thus founding the great 
" Millbourne Mills " flour industry. He was scientific in his tastes, and 
was an original member of the American Philosophical Society. He repre- 
sented Chester County in the Assembly, 1767-1771, and after the erection of 
Delaware County, was its representative in the Convention of 1790, which 
adopted the State Constitution; he also served as State Senator for Delaware

1814, in Philadelphia; d. in Philadelphia, Sept. 11, 1884; m. first, 
June 14, 1838, Keturah Hammer, daughter of Samuel and Julia 
Anna (Keyser) Hammer,^ of Germantown, b. Sept. 29, 1819, in 
Germantown ; d. in Philadelphia, Dec. 2, 1861. 

Charles L. Orum was recognized as a man of great strength 
of character, and was marked by a quiet poise of manner so often 
noticeable among Friends. He met Keturah Hammer when she 
was only seventeen, and was at once attracted by her beauty. 
She had been brought up according to the strait observances of 
the Mennonite Church with which her family was connected. 
She was very strict in her ideas upon dress and amusements, and 
never wore a piece of jewelry except her wedding ring. While 
on a visit to friends in Philadelphia she attended a meeting at the 
Union Methodist Church, and became a convert to Methodism. 
As Charles L. Orum declined to make acknowledgment for 
marrying out of meeting, he was disowned according to the cus- 
tom at that time. He and his wife united with the Methodist 

^ Julia Anna Keyser was a descendant of Dirck Keyser, who came from 
Amsterdam with his son Peter and settled in Germantown in 1688, where, 
under Francis David Pastorius, he lielped to establish a school. The Keysera 
belonged to the staunch old family of that name in Holland, one of whom, 
Leonard Keyser, was burned at the stake for his faith in 1527. Direk Keyser 
built the house now 6205 Germantown Avenue which tradition says was 
the first two-story house built in Germantown. On the front of the house 
by one of the windows is the inscription " D. K. 1738," cut in the stone. 
He took up the business of tanner, and part of his tannery buildings still 
remain back of 6316 Germantown Avenue, where a cedar fence riddled with 
bullets shows the heat of the fighting at the Battle of Germantown. He 
belonged to the Mennonites, whose first log meeting-house was replaced in

Church, and Hved devoted Christian Hves. While always quiet 
and unostentatious in giving, they were generous in assisting 
benevolent works.

Julia A. Orum from her earliest childhood loved teaching. 
When fifteen years old she took charge of the infant school of the 
Haines Street M. E. Church, where she taught the lesson so 
vividly as to hold the class spellbound. She was a graduate of 
the Philadelphia Normal School, ranking first in the Class of '64. 
When family reverses compelled her to think of self-support, she

the chuch-yard Brigadier-General Agnew was mortally wounded. 

Dirck Keyser had been a silk merchant in Amsterdam, and after coming 
to America, continued to wear a silk coat, which caused his neighbors much 
religious concern. Some of the brethren, calling upon him to speak their 
scruples regarding his worldliness, found him at work in the garden. As he 
advanced to meet them, he wiped his hands on his silk coat. Upon seeing 
this, they concluded that he did not set an undue value upon his apparel, 
and so left without speaking of the object of their visit. — " Guide Book 
to Historic Germantown," by Charles F. Jenkins.—" The Keyser Family,"

turned naturally to teaching. Her health failing, she was ad- 
vised to study voice culture. This she did with Prof. James B. 
Roberts, the tragedian. As a teacher in this Une, she had great 
success, her training being not only in correct expression of 
thought, but also in methods of breathing and use of the vocal 
muscles. The power and flexibility of her own voice was the 
best indorsment of her system. Teachers, singers, lecturers and 
clergymen were among her pupils, and many recovered from 
throat troubles and loss of voice by her training. 

One interesting experience of her work was a course given 
at the Convent of the Visitation, in Wilmington, Del. Here for 
a month she gave lessons to the Sisters, entertaining them in the 
evenings with recitations and Shakespearian readings, in which 
she excelled. 

In 1885 she established the Philadelphia School of Elocu- 
tion. In 1890 she had charge of the department of voice-train- 
ing and expression at Mountain Lake Park Chautauqua Assem- 
bly. She was elected teacher of voice training in the Woman's 
College of Baltimore. A few years before her death she was 
obliged to give up her work on account of ill-health. Her book, 
" The Orum System of Voice Education," published in 1893, is 
still a standard text-book.

in Shakertown, O., for several years. After he was married he 
lived in Burlington till 1853, when he moved to Lafayette, Ind. 
In the early part of 1856, he went to Le Roy, 111., where he 
owned a general store. In 1861 he enlisted in the Union Army, 
receiving his commission as Captain of Company L, Fourth 
Illinois Volunteer Cavalry. He went into camp at Ottawa, 111., 
on September 4, with about forty-five men, and in a week or so 
his company was filled. He was in the battles of Bull Run and 
Shiloh. Soon after the taking of Vicksburg, July 4, 1863, he was 
forced by ill health to resign his command. He came home for 
a time, but later, being unfit for active service, rejoined the army 
as quartermaster. In 1865 he moved to Bloomington, which was 
his final home.

Susan M. Longstreth was brought up under the careful 
training of her father, who, with the aid of a tutor, educated her 
and prepared her for teaching at the age of sixteen. In her first 
school he assisted her with the arrangement and the discipline of 
her classes. In 1847, feeling the need of higher education, she 
attended Cooper Academy, Dayton, O., and was graduated in 
the Class of 1849. Her marriage followed within a few 
months. 

In the early days of her widowhood the task of caring for 
her family of little ones was a heavy one, but under her efficient 
management it was successfully accomplished. The last years 
of her life were spent with her son and daughter at Gibbon, 
Neb.

later to Philadelphia, where he owned a milk depot. About 185 1 
he went to Minnesota, and was the first postmaster at St. Paul, 
an office he held for several years. In the Civil War, being too 
old for a soldier, he volunteered as carpenter, and served at Nash- 
ville, Tenn. He returned to Philadelphia a few years before his 
death.

to a wheelwright in Sadsbury, Chester County ; he did not, how- 
ever, follow his trade, but turned to farming. For a time he lived 
in Marple Township; in 1865 he bought a farm in Thornbury. 
He served in several township offices, and in 1872 was elected

ESTHER (FUSSELL) LEWIS, b. June 10, 1820; d. Apr. 30, 

1893. 

Dr. Fussell and his wife were descended from a long hne of 

ancestors strongly opposed to slavery, and both took an active 
part in the anti-slavery agitation. In no section did feeling run 
higher than in Indiana, where they early took up their residence. 
Dr. Fussell was prominent among the anti-slavery workers, and 
organized meetings to promote the cause. At one of these meet- 
ings held at Pendleton, Frederick Douglas was one of the speak- 
ers. Upon the platform, with other women, sat Rebecca Fussell 
with her infant son, Linnaeus, in her arms. While Frederick 
Douglas was addressing the meeting, a large man from the au- 
dience forced his way upon the platform, and rushed towards the 
speaker with raised club to strike him down. Rebecca Fussell 
sprang forward and interposed her child between the two. The 
assailant hesitated, then muttered, " We are not here to fight 
women and babies," and slunk away. 

So antagonistic was the pro-slavery element to Dr. Fussell 
that threats of personal violence were made, going so far as to 
put a price upon his head. As similar threats against others had 
sometimes been carried out, he reluctantly yielded to the per- 
suasions of relatives and friends, and returned to Pennsylvania 
in the fall of 1843. 

They settled first upon the Lewis farm in Vincent, Chester 
County, building there a house called from its environment, 
" Hickory Grove." In 1849 they moved to Philadelphia. Dur- 
ing the war Dr. Fussell was active in caring for the soldiers who 
were brought in great numbers to Philadelphia from the battle- 
fields of Pennsylvania and Maryland. Another change of resi- 
dence was made in 1871, when the family moved to Media, Pa. 



Fifth Generation. 233 

Dr. Fussell studied medicine with his uncle, Dr. Bartholo- 
mew Fussell, at Kennett Square, and there had the opportunity 
of hearing the frequent lectures and enjoying the friendship of 
Joshua Hoopes, one of the prominent botanists of the time. 

Joshua Hoopes was one of a number of scientists classed 
with Dr. George Smith, of Delaware County, — men who had 
been influenced by John Bartram and John Evans, noted botan- 
ists of an earlier generation, from whom has proceeded an incli- 
nation towards botanical studies which is strongly marked in 
eastern Pennsylvania.

6-48. Edwin Neal, b. Mar. 17, 1863; d. July i, 1895. Haswell. 

The beautiful life of Emma J. Fussell merits a lasting mem- 
ory, because it was an example of self-sacrifice and devotion. 
Her impulses were those of affection, obedience to duty, and an 
overmastering desire to help others. As was natural to a mind 
thus constituted, in the struggle between Freedom and Slavery, 
she allied herself with the former with enthusiasm. At a meet- 
ing addressed by George William Curtis in Philadelphia, which 
was disturbed by a pro-slavery mob, she chanced to be in line 
with a bottle of vitriol thrown into the audience. Her face was 
seriously burned, but after several weeks she emerged from the 
confinement of a dark room without disfigurement or loss of 
sight. If she had needed it, this experience would have been 
a baptismal confirmation of her opposition to slavery. 



234 The Longstreth Family Records. 

One of her brothers had enHsted as vokinteer to repel the in- 
vasion of Pennsylvania. She could not rest in the quiet shelter 
of home, but ofifered herself as teacher of the Freedmen at Beau- 
fort, South Carolina. Her ofifer was declined, and she came 
home in tears, saying of the official who denied her, " He could 
not have known how much I wanted to go." This official after- 
wards explained to her father that he thought it a useless sacri- 
fice, and so could not send her. 

Soon after this, from one of the battlefields in the South a 
large number of wounded were brought to the Hospital im- 
provised in Mechanics' Hall. Living near by, her father ofifered 
his services, and accompanied by his daughter, entered upon the 
work of relief. More skillful by previous training than many 
other women, she was everywhere in demand, either in binding 
up wounds, or in writing letters for the disabled. Engaged in 
these duties, she forgot her own need of rest, and ministered to 
them as long as human nature could endure the strain. Then 
came a few swift days of intense suffering, and her mission on 
earth was ended. A lowly grave in Providence Friends' Burying- 
ground bears witness to her martyrdom. 

Beautiful in mind and in person, loving and beloved, she 
seemed fitted for any station to which she might be called ; but 
the promise of her life was denied. Only in the hearts of her 
friends lives the memory of one of earth's purest souls, and in 
Heaven, one of God's saints. — Contributed by Graceanna Leivis.

Fifth Generation. 235 

Joseph Fussell for many years was an umbrella manufac- 
turer in PhiTadelphia. He had a strong interest in genealogy, 
and aided greatly in furnishing records of the Fussell family to 
the compiler of the Dawson Records. 

" A dutiful son, a devoted husband, a loving father, a re- 
liable business man, and a good citizen, he worthily fulfilled the 
round of earthly duties. Well informed in affairs, and cultured 
in the literature of the day, he was interesting in social life. 
Having been one of the old abolitionists he was trained in the 
humanities that included men of every race. Throughout hfe 
he was an esteemed member of the Society of Friends." — 
Friends' Intelligencer. 

His home for many years was in Germantown, where his 
wife and children now live.

Elizabeth M. Lewis, though born in Maryland, returned while 
still an infant to live near Philadelphia, upon which she looked 
back with loving remembrance as her early home. In 1846 she 
moved with the family to Fall Creek, Madison County, Ind., 
where she passed the rest of her life. 

She had a genial nature, and being gifted in conversation, 
her society was a delight ; few persons had a wider circle of warm 
and true friends. One of her leading traits was the desire to help 
others ; she was always thinking how to give pleasure, especially 
to children, of whom she was very fond. 

She was intellectually well endowed, and earlier in life wrote 
many poems. Her domestic life was one of great happiness, as 
her husband shared her cultivated tastes. He was at one time 
a school-teacher, and later a school trustee. He took a keen in- 
terest in the advancement and prosperity of the country, and was 
looked upon as a leader in progressive movements.

' Charles Gorsuch, born 1780, died 1873, was the son of Charles and Lydia 
(Bosley) Gorsuch. Charles Gorsuch, St., was one of the earliest settlers in 
the Eleventh District, and was the original patentee of several hundred acres 
at the present town of Fork, Baltimore County, which he received from King 
George III prior to Revolutionary times. This Charles was the son of David 
Gorsuch, who in 1760 bought two tracts of land in the present city of Balti- 
more; he bought also in 1769 a farm of one hundred twenty acres, which 
forms part of the Gorsuch estate. David Gorsuch was the son of Charles 
Gorsuch, who was probably the son of the first of the name in America.

America at an early date. Tliey are said to have brought records stating that 
the Gorsuchs came originally from Hungary, and settled in England over 
six hundred years ago. The first record in America is a patent granted by 
Charles II to Charles Gorsuch in 1662 for fifty acres on Whetstone Point, 
the present site of Ft. McHenry, the first land settled in Baltimore. He was a 
member of the Society of Friends. A Charles Gorsuch bought fifty acres at 
Whetstone Point, north of the Patapsco River in 1700, and in 1711 another 
fifty acres near Sparrow Point. Possibly this was Charles, the emigrant, or it 
may have been his son.—" The Gorsuch Genealogj'." Charles W. Gorsuch,

' Jonas Martenet, a native of St. Blaise, near Neufchatel, Switzerland, came 
to this country when scarcely of age, and settled in Baltimore. He died in 
1835, leaving his -nadow -with six sons. She was a native of Hesse Cassel, 
Germany, her father having emigrated with his family to Baltimore in 1800. 



Fifth Generation. 245 

Simon J. Martenet, for many years City Surveyor of Balti- 
more, was sent to the public schools, entering the High School 
at the age of twelve. Owing to his father's early death, he sup- 
ported himself after the age of thirteen, by working out of school 
hours. In 1849 ^^^ began his training as surveyor and civil en- 
gineer with Thomas P. Chiffele, City Surveyor. Mr. Chiffele 
left Baltimore in 1855, ^^^ Simon J. Martenet succeeded him in 
his business. He was Democratic candidate for City Surveyor 
the same year, but was defeated with his whole ticket by the 
American Party. 

During the financial crisis of 1857, when his work had some- 
what fallen ofif in the general depression, he commenced surveys 
of several counties of Maryland to fill up his time, with the view 
of publishing county and state maps. The work was interrupted 
by the Civil War; but after 1865 he completed the enterprise, 
the work having required about fifteen thousand miles of surveys. 
These maps were published in 1867, and are recognized as stand- 
ard ; by act of Legislature in the following year, they were sup- 
plied to the Maryland public schools. 

In November, 1867, he was elected City Surveyor of Balti- 
more by the Democratic Party, an office which he held for several 
years. He did important work in plotting and mapping the lands 
of the Canton Company, which comprised a large section of the 
eastern part of Baltimore, extending several miles into the coun- 
try. 

His experience, untiring energy, and ability made him the 
leader of his profession in Baltimore. He was a member of the 
Society of Friends. — From The Biographical Cyclopedia of Rep-

Kennett, for many years the home of Joshua L. Fussell, was 
a neighborhood composed almost entirely of Friends, and formed 
a most intelligent and progressive community; among his school- 
mates were Bayard Taylor and his wife, Mary Agnew, Barclay 

^ Isaac Busby moved to Indiana from western Virginia. In the Civil 
War he was captain of the Thirty-fourth Indiana Volunteers, and engineer 
of the mining operations at the siege of Vicksburg, under General Grant.

Pennock, and others afterwards noted in literary and other walks 
of life. About 1838 the family moved to the northern part of 
Chester County. In 1840 he went to Philadelphia; here he was 
office-boy in the Anti-Slavery Office, where was published The 
Pennsylvania Freeman, under the management of J. Miller 
McKim and Charles C. Burleigh. 

When twenty years old, he was engaged with the engineer 
corps under J. Edgar Thompson and Samuel W. Mifflin, which 
surveyed the line of the Pennsylvania Railroad across the moun- 
tains to the western part of the State ; he is probably the only 
survivor of this great engineering work which contributed so 
largely to the opening of the " great West." 

At the close of this service in 1849 he went to Madison, 
Ind., walking all the distance beyond Pittsburg. In this new 
settlement he did the sturdy work of the pioneer, turning his 
hand to whatever the needs of the community demanded, — 
teaching, clearing the land, farming. He erected in 1854 the first 
steam saw-mill in that part of the country. In 1856 he was in 
Kansas, and was involved in the struggle to secure that terri- 
tory to the Union as a free state. 

At the outbreak of the Civil War he was again in Indiana. 
In 1 86 1 he volunteered in the Thirty-fourth Indiana Infantry, 
afterwards known as the " Morton Rifles " ; within eight months 
he was promoted until he became captain of Company D, which 
rank he held till the end of the war. He took part in the siege 
and capture of New Madrid, Mo., Fort Thompson, and Island 
No. 10, and in the expedition against Fort Pillow. During the 
Vicksburg campaign he was in the battles of Grand Gulf, Port 
Gibson, Champion Hills, Raymond, and minor engagements. He 
was present at the siege and capture of Vicksburg, and of Jack- 
son, Miss. ; at both he was in charge of part of the construction 
of the advance works. He commanded the Provost Guard at 
New Orleans from May to December, 1864, and accompanied

General Banks's expedition into western Louisiana, involving 
the battles of Grand Coteau and Opelousas, as well as many skir- 
mishes. He took part in two expeditions to Texas, and was in 
the last battle of the Civil War fought at Palmetto Ranch, on the 
Rio Grande, May 13, 1865. 

After the war he laid aside the sword for the plowshare, re- 
turning to farming, first in Indiana, later in Texas, and again 
in Indiana, where, at Markleville, he turned his attention to for- 
estry and the propagation of plants and trees for forestry pur- 
poses. In 1906 he moved to Geneva, Neb., where he and his 
wife, having passed the half-century milestone of their married 
life, purpose to pass the rest of their days near two of their sons. 

He is a man of ability and force of character, a beloved and 
respected member of the Society of Friends, belonging to Fall 
Creek Monthly Meeting.

John L. Spencer, with his wife and six children left their 
home near Crosswicks early in 1839, and drove in a covered 
wagon to Pittsburg. While waiting there a few days for their 
goods which had been sent by canal, the children were taken to 
visit the glassworks, — a novel sight to them. On the arrival of 
their goods they took a steamboat down the Ohio and up the 
Mississippi to Alton, 111. This trip was greatly enjoyed by the 
little ones, particularly the experience of running aground on a 
sand-bar. From Alton they crossed the country in a wagon for 
twenty-five miles to Jerseyville ; at Monticello they saw the large 
school building that is still standing, and at Jerseyville, the first 
wind grist-mill in that part of the country. The farm on which 
they settled remained the home of John L. Spencer until his 
death.

John L. Michener lived when first married in Nottingham, 
Wells County, Ind. Because of unhealthy conditions here, he 
decided to move with his family to Minnesota Territory. In the 
fall of 1856 they drove to Iowa in company with a number of 
other families, and spent the winter near Iowa City. The next

spring they started northward, and after weeks of hardship from 
bad roads and rainy weather, they reached the farm where he 
and his wife were to end their days. Their first house was only 
a log cabin, twelve feet square ; here they lived while ten acres 
of land were being broken by the plow. They were sixty-eight 
miles from a market, and the privations of the first years were 
very severe. Improvements were made as rapidly as possible, 
until the farm and buildings were among the finest in that region. 
To the end of his long and busy life he took great interest in re- 
form movements that in his earlier years he had worked hard to 
promote.

John L. Shoemaker was educated at the district schools and 
with private tutors. In 1853 he came to Philadelphia to study 
law, and entered the office of Charles M. Wagner. He studied 
at the same time at the Law School of the University of Penn- 
sylvania, from which he was graduated with honor in 1856. The 
same year he was admitted to practice in the lower courts, and 
in 1858, in the Supreme Court. His quiet nature attracted him 
especially to civil cases, and in this branch of law he became very 
successful. 

^ Jonathan Shoemaker was a brother of John and Jesse Shoemaker. (See 
4-39, and 4-43) . 




'^^V^A^ 



Fifth Generation. 283 

His public life began in 1861 with his nomination, in a 
strongly Democratic district, as Republican candidate for Com- 
mon Council, to which he was elected by a large majority. There 
arose a question, however, as to the legality of the army vote ; 
having examined the records, he was convinced that there had 
been irregularities, and refused to take his seat. In spite of the 
urging of associates, he sent to Councils a letter of declination so 
full of lofty purpose that it stands as a monument of public 
honor. In 1863 he was appointed to a position in the Provost 
Marshal's department, where he remained till the end of the 
war. Though unable to enter the army, and therefore exempt 
from draft, he sent a substitute into the field. After the war he 
was twice elected to Common Council, and three times to Select 
Council. 

In the celebration of the nation's centennial he was one of 
the most active workers. Though not the originator of the idea, 
it was he who in January, 1870, made the first public speech, and 
the first official motion in a legislative body, looking towards the 
Centennial Exhibition of 1876. He was appointed chairman of a 
joint committee of Councils on the Centennial Exhibition, to 
present a memorial to Congress, and he was by acclamation 
elected counsellor and solicitor of the United States Centennial 
Committee in 1872. He had the gratification of seeing the en- 
terprise for which he had labored so long and faithfully mature 
into the greatest exposition that the world had then seen ; but 
scarcely a month after the closing day of that exposition, his life 
also reached its close. 

No better estimate of his character and public services can 
be given than by quoting from an appreciation published soon 
after his death : 

" Always a hard worker in his profession, when he entered 
the Councils of his adopted city he at once assumed the public 
service as a trust requiring the most conscientious care. To this 



284 The Longstreth Family Records. 

trust he was ever faithful, giving to the interests of the city the 

same scrupulous attention that marked all his transactions. From 

the time he entered public office he was a conspicuous example of 

the fact that it is possible for a man to pass through the ordeal 

of public life without a shadow of suspicion resting upon him. 

" It is, however, in connection with the commemoration of 

our Centennial birthday as a nation that his name will be most 

widely remembered. To this great patriotic service he gave 

years of unremitting labor, devoting time, money, health, and 

finally life itself. To those who know how he toiled for years 

before the project took definite shape, and how unceasingly his 

labors have been carried on during the after period, it is no secret 

that his life was a sacrifice to the great national triumph of our 

day. Upon his willing shoulders was carried a large part of the 

burden before the Commission was created by Congress, or our 

Board of Finance came into being. No one else has labored so 

long nor sacrificed so much, and to no one else does Philadelphia 

and the nation owe such a debt of gratitude in this connection 

as to John L. Shoemaker."

286 The Longstreth Family Records. 

In many respects, the life of John L. Longstreth bears a 
striking resemblance to that of his great-grandfather, Daniel 
Longstreth (2-^). He was born at the Homestead, and spent the 
early years of his life upon the farm ; at the age of eighteen he 
was left by his father's death in care of a family of brothers and 
sisters to whom he supplied, as far as possible, a father's place ; 
he has always shown a warm attachment to kindred, and has 
maintained an active interest in a wide family connection. And 
no better estimate of his character could be given than to repeat 
what has been said of the character of Daniel Longstreth. 

His business life has always been connected with the house 
of Samuel H. French and Company, dealers in paints, varnishes, 
and builders' supplies. He entered the employ of C. French 
and Company as bookkeeper in 1853. In 1883 the personeUe of 
the firm changed, and John L. Longstreth, having for many 
years acted as manager, became a partner. He retired from 
business in 1902, rounding out almost fifty years' connection with 
the house. On this occasion he was presented by the firm and 
employees with a silver tea service, and a testimonial signed by 
the firm and every employee of the house, some of whom had 
been in their servic almost as long as himself. At the close of 
their business relationship, his partner paid high tribute to his 
justness of dealing and integrity. 

Since his withdrawal from commercial interests he has de- 
voted much of his time to charitable activities. He is a man- 
ager of the House of Industry, 716 Catherine Street, and a mem- 
ber of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, and the Bucks 
County Historical Society. He is also a member of the Old 
Pupils' Association of the Friends' Central School having en- 
tered the first day the school opened, September i, 1845. The 
engraving of Benjamin Hallowell, the first Principal, which 
hangs in the ofiice of the school, is his gift. He has always 




Rachel 0. Longstreth. 



Fifth Generation. 287 

maintained his connection with Friends, and for many years has 
been an Elder of Race Street Meeting. 

On the death of his father in 1846 the Homestead became 
his possession through purchase, as the will required the property 
to be sold. He was the fifth owner in direct line since the farm 
was bought by Bartholomew Longstreth from Thomas Fairman 
in 1710, the other three transfers being by will. Because of this 
ownership in direct line of the " cradle of the American Long- 
streths," and of the large collection of manuscripts — genealogi- 
cal memoranda, historical sketches, and copies of letters, — in- 
herited from his ancestors, the compiler has found him an un- 
equalled source of information upon all points of early history ; 
while his venerable age, high character, and paternal interest in 
kindred, make him a well marked figure in that part of the family 
which centers in Philadelphia. 

Among many interesting memories of his long life is that 
of calling with his father, when a young man, on an old resident 
of Warminster named Nicholas Boileau, and hearing him tell 
that it was he who had made the paddle-wheels for the model 
steamboat that John Fitch made and successfully ran on a pond 
near Davisville, Bucks County. In thinking of the vast steam 
commerce of the seas to-day, it seems incredible that a man now 
living has conversed with the man who made the wheel for the 
first steamboat that ever cut the waves.

Philadelphia in 1857, being then eighteen, and began his appren- 
ticeship with Mathias Baldwin, of the Baldwin Locomotive 
Works. Trained in habits of industry, punctuality and strict in- 
tegrity, he carried these qualities into his new work. During 
the entire five years of his apprenticeship he never reported late 
for duty. When less than three years of his time had elapsed, 
and before he was yet of age, he was made assistant foreman of 
one of the departments, and eight months later became foreman 
of the second floor of the works. All the while he was working 
upon a gauge system, which he in time perfected. This gauge 
system makes it possible to fit together completed locomotives, 
and to replace broken parts, with extreme simplicity, and is one 
of the characteristic features of the Baldwin locomotives. He 
also patented locomotive trucks, and other appliances. 

In August, 1867, he became foreman of the erecting shop, 
and in January, 1868, superintendent of the works. He was ad- 
mitted into the firm in 1870, continuing his control of the me- 
chanical and construction departments, which employed three 
thousand men. Because of impaired health, the consequence of 
close application to his onerous duties, he retired from active 
partnership in 1886. 

merchant. This business developed into the wholesale dry goods firm of Wise, 
Pusey and Company. 

He was zealous in the Anti-slaverj' movement, and finally refused to deal 
in the products of slavery, buying raw cotton from a grower who employed 
free labor, and sending it to the mills himself. For many years he was treas- 
urer of the Underground Railroad. His ardor in the cause of freedom brought 
him into friendly relations with John G. "WTiittier, when the poet was living 
in Philadelphia as editor of the " Pennsylvania Freedman," and with Rev. 
Wm. H. Furness, D.D., whose church he attended from the time he came to

He was interested in philanthropic and educational move- 
ments, and after his retirement from business, gave much of his 
time to such matters. He was a liberal patron of the Spring 
Garden Institute, which conducts evening classes for young men, 
by which he himself had profited during his apprenticeship. He 
was vice-president of the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia; di- 
rector of the Williamson Industrial School for Boys, being ap- 
pointed by the will of the founder ; director of the Delaware In- 
surance Company ; member of the Merchants' Fund, a charitable 
organization of the Society of Friends ; member of the Union 
League, and of the Engineers' Club. 

He was a member, and for many years a trustee and direc- 
tor, of the Bucks County Historical Society, and took an active 
part in the work of preserving the records and archives of the 
county in which his ancestors had lived since the time of Penn. 
He gave to the Society the land on which to erect a building; 
he supplied the funds for the monument erected in 1902 on Old 
York Road in Warminster Township to mark the spot where 
John Fitch was sitting when he first conceived the idea of the 
steamboat (see page 64) ; for restoring the monument that marks 
the site of the skirmish of Crooked Billet, (see page 52) ; and for 
marking other historic places. 

He was deeply interested in civic affairs, being one of the 
most energetic members of the Committee of One Hundred 
which defeated the corrupt political faction in Philadelphia in 
1884. He was a lifelong member of the Society of Friends, hav- 
ing his membership at Fourth and Green Street Meeting. 

He had a kind and generous nature, ready to extend a help- 
ing hand to young men beginning life, and to contribute to 
charitable and scientific enterprise. He was respected by his 
associates, and died lamented and honored by all. 

The name of his wife, Anna W. Longstreth, stands as a mile- 
stone to mark the progress of woman's achievement, and is held

in precious memory by her contemporaries. When leisure from 
household cares came to her, she turned her executive ability to 
that larger household, the community, where her service was 
greatly needed. She was active in various charitable associa- 
tions, being especially interested in the welfare of homeless chil- 
dren. It was one of her fondest hopes that in time some means 
might be devised for providing individual homes for little waifs 
instead of gathering them into institutions. She was prominent 
in the history of women's clubs, being long identified with the 
New Century Club of Philadelphia, one of the oldest and most 
influential of these clubs. For three years (the unwritten law 
of limitation) she was its president, and for many years a direc- 
tor ; and her policy is still noticeable in its management. 

Extending her executive power beyond the limits of her own 
club, she supervised the formation of the State Federation of 
Pennsylvania Women ; she was deeply interested in the General 
Federation of Women's Clubs, which embraces the whole coun- 
try. As the leader of the local committee, she planned and 
helped to carry out its third biennial meeting held in Philadel- 
phia in 1894. The crowning efifort of her life work in this line 
was the still greater task, the successful mapping out of the pro- 
gramme for the Fifth Biennial Convention held in Denver in 
1898. 

Her success in these wide fields of organization was due not 
only to her wise foresight and discriminating judgment, but also 
to her personality. The memorial resolutions adopted at her 
death by the New Century Club indicate the secret of her wide- 
spread influence. " Her presence and her voice were always 
greeted with the welcome that women give to their most trusted 
leaders, her words of wit and wisdom always finding response 
in our hearts. Her sagacity, her genial ways, her champion- 
ship of the cause of the humblest, her breadth of view, and the 
deep seriousness which was at the foundation of these intellec-

tual gifts and graces, made a personality of rare power and 
v/idely reaching inspiration." Let there be added to this enumera- 
tion the quahties of sound sense and unfaihng tact, and her power 
of leadership needs no further analysis. 

She was an active member of the Civic Club of Philadelphia, 
and at the time of her death was its vice-president. 

She was identified with the formation of the Spring Garden 
Unitarian Church, and served as a trustee for a number of years. 
The spiritual side of life strongly appealed to her, and she was 
frequently called upon to make addresses on religious subjects. 
Shortly before her death she gave the Sunday morning lecture 
to the boys of Girard College, being the first woman invited to 
make this weekly address. 

Besides these large general interests and her public benevo- 
lent work, her private charities were many, — more than will ever 
be known.

tion school in one of the pubHc school houses, to prove the value 
and necessity of such schools in Philadelphia. The experiment 
being successful, it resulted in the establishing of many such 
schools by the Board of Education throughout the city. She has 
given much attention to genealogical interests, and also to kin- 
dergarten and artistic work. She is a member of Green Street 
Monthly Meeting. 

Robert Tilney came from London to America in 1861. In 
January, 1862, he enlisted in the Union Army, Twelfth New 
York Regiment, Fifth Army Corps, Army of the Potomac, and 
served till the end of the war. After being in several engage- 
ments, he was appointed clerk to the Regiment ; afterwards to 
the Ordnance Office of the Brigade ; then to the Provost-Mar- 
shall of the Division ; finally he became chief clerk at Headquar- 
ters, Fifth Army Corps. 

For twenty-eight years he was editor of The American 
Neivspaper Annual, resigning this position in 1908; he now de- 
votes his time to certain lines of literary work. In 1898 he pub- 
lished Gleanings from Poetic Fields, and his poems appear from 
time to time in the periodicals. He is by nature a student, with 
a taste for languages, eight of which he reads with facility. He 
is a member of Green Street Meeting, where for several years 
he was superintendent of the First-day School, and active in the 
Friends' Social Lyceum. He is also a member of the Geo- 
graphical Society of Philadelphia. 

They live in Germantown.

possessing the elements of sterling merit. He was one of the 
very few to my personal knowledge who could withstand the 
many temptations to evil that were presented to the soldier. He 
had no part in the gambling, the drinking, and the profanity of 
the camp. I knew him well, and can say that no man ever served 
his country more faithfully than he. As a Christian man he had 
lived, and so he died." 

His home during his entire married life was the farm, 
" Three Elms," in Ross County, near Richmond Dale. His wife, 
after long residence in Cleveland, now lives at Amarillo, Tex.

in which from that time he has been almost continuously inter- 
ested. Since 1886 he has been connected with the Momence, 111., 
Press-Reporter, which he still controls, but has not engaged in 
its active management since entering the United States Indian 
service. 

In July, 1897, he was appointed Indian Agent for the 
Indians of Colorado River, and lived four years at Parker, Ariz. 
He was then promoted to the position of Special Indian Agent,

first six months of 1906 almost $900,000 passed through his 
hands, more than half a milHon of this sum being from the sale 
of timber on Indian lands. 

Before going into the Indian service, he filled several posi- 
tions of a business, political and honorary nature. Besides his 
other interests, he owns two farms aggregating four hundred 
eighty acres of well cultivated land in the famous " Palouse coun- 
try," south of Spokane, Wash.

up the study of medicine which had always been his ambition, 
and was graduated from the College of Physicians and Surgeons 
in St. Louis, with highest honors, in 1898. His double work,

result in his death before he had opportunity to practice. He

character.

Philadelphia; d. in Philadelphia, Apr. 17, 1896. 

Dr. Hunt was among the most skillful of Philadelphia's 
many noted surgeons. He was educated at the Friends' Select 
School, and entered his father's publishing house ; but, disliking 
business, in 1846 he began the study of medicine. He was grad- 
uated from the University of Pennsylvania, Medical Department, 
in 1849, srid shortly afterwards was appointed resident physician 
of the Pennsylvania Hospital, where he remained two years. In 
1854 he was appointed demonstrator of anatomy in the University 
of Pennsylvania, and in 1856, surgeon in the Episcopal Hospital. 
In the same year he married and commenced general practice. 
In 1863 he was elected surgeon of the Pennsylvania Hospital, and 
rounded out thirty years in that position, resigning in 1893 b^" 
cause of ill-health. He was also visiting surgeon to the Wills' 
Hospital, the Orthopedic Hospital, and the Pennsylvania Institu- 
tion for the Deaf and Dumb. 

During the Civil War he was appointed Acting Assistant 

^ Joseph Price was a brother of Richard Price. See 4-147. 

2 Dr. William Hunt wa^ descended from a long line of Friendly ancestors, 
the first of whom came from Scotland to America in 1680. His father, Uriah 
Hunt, was bom in Guilford Co., N. C, and came to Philadelphia in his youth. 
He was a publisher and bookseller, and carried on this business for nearly 
half a centurj', his specialty being the publication of school-books. 

Dr. Hunt's mother was a daughter of Caleb and Margaret Donaldson, 
and granddaughter of Arthur Donaldson of Revolutionary fame.

Surgeon, and on several occasions was ordered to the front; but 
his principal service was in the military hospitals in and about 
Philadelphia. He received the appointment as " Special Inspec- 
tor of the General Hospitals of the Army," and visited hospitals 
in many cities. It was while on this service that he met Dr. 
Oliver Wendell Holmes (see 4-155), whose son he attended at 
" House Beautiful." In a letter written to Dr. Hunt after this 
incident, Dr. Holmes acknowledged his attentions to his son, 
ending in a characteristic humorous turn : " Goodby, my kind 
friend and my son's friend, whom I have delicately commemo- 
rated in ' My Hunt after the Captain.' " 

Dr. Hunt was a trustee of the University of Pennsylvania, 
Fellow of the College of Physicians, Honorary Fellow of the 
American Surgical Association, Member of the Philadelphia 
County Medical Society, the Academy of Natural Sciences, the 
Pennsylvania Historical Society, and at one time president of 
the Philadelphia Academy of Surgery. For many years he was 
one of the associate editors of the Annual of the Medical 
Sciences, and he wrote from time to time numerous monographs 
on medical subjects. 

In 1887 Dr. Hunt met with a serious accident that injured 
his spine ; although rest and change wrought some improvement, 
he never fully recovered, and in 1893 was obliged to give up all 
active work. 

Rebecca P. Hunt now lives in a house which belonged to 
her great-grandfather Williams, and which is in almost the exact 
state that it was when her grandmother, Sarah Williams, was 
born there in 1781.

At the age of seventeen William P. Hallovvell entered the 
employ of Morris L. Hallowell and Company. In 1854 he be- 
came a partner in the house of Guillon, Walton, and Company, 
importers of linens and housekeeping dry goods ; this connec- 
tion he dissolved in 1857, ^^id about two years later was admitted 
to an interest in the firm of Morris L. Hallowell and Company, 
where he remained till the beginning of the Civil War. He en- 
tered the army as a private in Company A, First Artillery, Penn- 
sylvania Militia, mustered Sept., 1862, and served during the first 
Confederate raid into Pennsylvania. As First Lieutenant and 
Adjutant of Fifty-fifth Massachusetts Volunteers, he took part 
in the siege of Charleston, S. C, in the summer of 1863 ; and was 
honorably discharged Feb. 25, 1864. He contracted rheuma- 
tism in Florida during the war, which made his last years a mar- 
tyrdom, his joints being so stiflfened that his body became inflexi- 
ble. 

In 1868 he was elected Justice of the Peace for Montgomery 
County, but declined to serve. 

He devoted several years to learning the art of printing, and 
in 1870 established the Cheltenham Press, near his home in Chel- 
tenham Township, which proved a successful enterprise. After 
three years he sold the plant, which was moved to Philadelphia. 

Early in 1875 ^e purchased a seat in the Philadelphia Stock 
Exchange, and began business as a banker and broker in partner- 
ship with his son Morris, as Wm. P. Hallowell and Company. 

^ Isaac Roberts Davis, born 1809, died 1857, was well known in business 
circles. He was the son of Evan and Elizabeth (Evans) Davis, and was edu- 
cated at Westtown School. 

Lydia Corbit was the daughter of Joseph and Eh'zabeth (Cowgil!) Corbit, 
and was bom at Smyrna, Del., 1810; died 1873. The Davis home was "Chelton," 
in Cheltenham Township.

He continued in this business until, in 1887, failing health com- 
pelled him to retire. In 1886 he was elected a companion of the 
first class of the miltary order of the Loyal Legion, Commandery 
of the State of Pennsylvania. 

He published in 1893 a genealogy of the Hallowell family, 
which has been largely quoted in this Record.

with the South. He was for a time in the employ of a firm of 
wool commission merchants, leaving them to commence business 
for himself about 1856. The next year he went to Boston, 
where, under different firm names, he conducted one of the larg- 
est wool commission houses in that city. H was a director and 
later vice-president of the National Bank of Commerce, of Bos- 
ton. 

In early life he ardently espoused the cause of freedom ; he 
was a member of the Pennsylvania Abolition Society, and num- 
bered among his warmest friends, Wendell Phillips, William 
Lloyd Garrison, James and Lucretia Mott. While his zeal did 
not carry him to the front, he performed perhaps greater service 
by aiding in the recruiting of those famous colored regiments, 
the Fifty-fourth and Fifty-fifth Massachusetts Volunteers, and 
also acting as treasurer of the recruiting fund. He was one of 
the small company of men who went to Harper's Ferry to bring 
back the body of John Brown after his execution, for burial at 
North Elba, N. Y. ; and was one of Wendell Phillips's " body- 
guard " in the early days of the war, when free speech was dan- 
gerous in Massachusetts. 

His home from the time of his marriage was in West Med- 
ford, Mass., where his wife still resides. In the midst of his 
business cares he found time for indulging his literary tastes, and 
in 1883 published " The Quaker Invasion of Massachusetts ; " 
later he published " The Pioneer Quakers." Besides this, he 
wrote many articles for newpaper publication. 

His wife is also gifted v/ith a ready pen, having compiled an 
interesting account of her grandparents in " The Life and Let- 
ters of James and Lucretia Mott," as well as contributed articles 
to periodical literature. She is moreover an artist of no small 
merit.

Icit IVilhelma Swett, daughter of William Gray and Charlotte 
(Bartlett) Swett, b. Feb. 8, 1843. 

Edward N. Hallowell began his business career as a stock 
and note broker in Philadelphia. He was strongly identified with 
the Anti-Slavery cause, and became a member of the Pennsyl- 
vania Abolition Society in 1859. He was active in aiding fugi- 
tive slaves, and it was he who planned the escape of the cele- 
brated slave, Daniel Dangerfield, whose trial in the Philadelphia 
courts created such intense excitement. In spite of the ruling of 
Commissioner Longstreth (5-596) that he should be released, 
it was feared that Daniel would be seized by his master, so he was 
temporarily secreted by friends of his own race. Under cover of 
night, Edward N. Hallowell, in company with a friend, drove 
with him to the home of Morris L. Hallowell at Chelten Hills, 
and hid him there until high feeling had somewhat subsided, then 
passed him on farther north. 

At the opening of the war, Edward N. Hallowell responded 
to the first call for volunteers, enlisting as private in the Fourth 
Battalion New England Guard, stationed at Fort Independence, 
Boston Harbor. He rose rapidly to Second Lieutenant, Twen- 
tieth Massachusetts Infantry ; First Lieutenant of the same regi- 
ment; Captain of the Fifty-fourth Massachusetts Infantry; 



380 The Longstreth Family Records. 

Major, Lieutenant-Colonel, Colonel of the same regiment; bre- 
veted Brigadier-General U. S. Volunteers for meritorious ser- 
vices in 1865, and mustered out at the close of the war. 

In 1868 he was elected a companion of the first class of the 
Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States, Com- 
mandery of the State of Massachusetts. 

After returning to civil life he entered his brother Richard's 
firm of wool commission merchants in Boston. His death was 
caused by aneurism of the aorta, from an injury received in a pe- 
culiar way during the war. When in command at Morris Island 
he was obliged to cross a space raked by the Confederate guns. 
He put his horse to a full run, but, unfortunately, struck a quick- 
sand, into which the horse sank. The sudden stopping of his 
mount when at top speed threw Colonel Hallowell over his head 
to a place of safety, but gave him a severe strain and nervous 
shock, from which he never recovered. He regretted deeply 
the loss of his horse, which he valued because it had belonged to 
the famous Col. Robert G. Shaw, of the Fifty-fourth Massachu- 
setts, who had been killed at Fort Wagner, and to whose com- 
mand he had succeeded. 

Edward N. Hallowell lived after his marriage in West Med- 

ford, Mass., which is still the home of his wife and daughters.

West Laurel Hill Cemetery. 

Elizabeth L. Taylor resembled her father in many respects, 
having the same spirit of hospitality, especially towards kinsfolk, 
and showing the same directness in speech, and adherance to duty. 
She was educated at the Friends' School, Fifth and Cherry 
Streets, and at Sharon Boarding School, which was opened in 
1837 by John Jackson, a noted teacher and preacher of that day, 
near Sharon Hill, Pa. She entered this school in its first year, 
and some one of the six sisters was there until it closed after the 
death of John Jackson. She attended the new Friends' School, 
Fifteenth and Race Streets, in its first year, 1845, to encourage 
the attendance of others. 

William Curtis Taylor was educated at the William Penn 
Charter School. Most of his business life was spent as a pho- 
tographer in Philadelphia. In 1889 he went to Tacoma, Wash., 
where he was librarian of the Public Library for several years, 
returning to Philadelphia in 1896. 

He was an honorary member of the Franklin Institute, and 
of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania. 

The first years of married life were spent in Philadelphia; 
they moved to Germantown in 1856, to Haddonfield, N. J., in 
1869, and to Ridley Park, Pa., in 1877. where they occupied a col- 
onial house which had been standing practically the same since 
1739. This remained the family home till after the death of 
both, when the property was sold.

^ Dr. Peter Shoenberger, called the " Iron King of Pittsburgh," was the 
son of Jacob Shoenberger, who came from Manheim, Germany; Dr. Shoen- 
berger Avas a physician living near Tyrone, Pa.; while travelling about in his 
gig he saw the wealth of outcropping iron, and quietly bought up land until 
he had a large holding. He began smelting operations in a small way, laying 
the foundations of the Cambria Iron Works of Johnstown; in 1824 he moved 
to Pittsburgh, and giving up medicine, devoted all his attention to the manu- 
facture of iron. He owned seven furnaces in Center and Huntingdon Counties. 
He died in Germantown, Philadelphia, in 1854, aged sixty-four. 

His son, John H. Shoenberger, carried on the iron works until he sold out 
to the st€el trust; certain products of the works are still known to the trade 
by the name of Shoenberger. 

^ Charles West Starr, bom 1793, in Philadelphia, engaged for a time in the 
coasting trade between that city and Charleston, S. C, and later entered the 
lumber business in Charleston. In 1818, he journeyed on horseback to Mis- 
souri, the trip taking five months. On the way home he stopped at Rich-

May 17, 1841, in Richmond; d. at Battle Creek, Mich., Aug. 24, 
1903, both buried in Earlham Cemetery.^ No children. 

At the outbreak of the Civil War, Benjamin Starr responded 
to the first call for troops. He enlisted in the Second Indiana 
Cavalry, was wounded at the battle of Gallatin, Tenn., and was 
honorably discharged. His longest business connection was with 
the Starr Piano Company of Richmond, of which he was secre- 
tary and treasurer for over twenty years. He was prominent in 
Grand Army affairs, and in 1902 was elected Commander of the 
Department of Indiana ; he was a trustee of the Soldiers' Orphans' 
Home at Knightstown (see p. 122), and of the Soldiers' Monu- 
ment in Indianapolis. His first official act as Department Com- 
mander was the dedication of this monument. In 1902 he was 
elected State Senator from Wayne County, to fill an unexpired 
term. 

He was active in promoting good citizenship, serving twenty 
years on the city school-board, and acting as trustee for several 
benevolent institutions. He was highly esteemed for his kind- 
ness and uprightness in every relation of life. 

Mary B. L. Starr was active in White Water Meeting and 
in civic affairs throughout her residence in Richmond.

1843, in Philadelphia; m. in Philadelphia, by Friends' ceremony, 

mond, Ind., settled twelve years before, and just incorporated. He examined 
the country, and entered a tract of land. 

He married Elizabeth Wilson, and in 1825 he moved to Richmond with 
his wife, two children, and goods, in two wagons, over roads scarcely more 
than trails. His farm occupied all the northern side of ^Tain Street, and it 
was his foresight that prepared for the city's growth by laying out wide 
streets bordered ■with trees. He was noted for his uprightness, and was trusted 
and respected by all who knew him. 

His wife had a strong character, both kind of heart and sound of judg- 
ment; she was noted for a phenomenal memory for the minutest details of past 
events, which remained unimpaired until her death in 1886. 

' Benjamin Starr married first, Julia Iredell, and had one daughter, Lydia, 
who married Frank Tabor of Chicago. She has four children: John Starr, Paul. 
May, and Lydia Starr Tabor.

Dr. Longstreth was graduated from Haverford College in 
1864, and entered Harvard University, from which he was grad- 
uated in 1866. He studied medicine at the University of Penn- 
sylvania, taking his degree in 1869. Shortly afterward he was 
appointed resident physician of the Pennsylvania Hospital, where 
he remained eighteen months. While in residence, he was ap- 
pointed curator of the Pathological Museum of the Hospital, 
where he did valuable work in arranging and cataloguing the 
specimens. In 1875 he gave a course of lectures on pathological 
anatomy, illustrated by specimens from the Museum, at that time

the only one of its kind in Philadelphia. He was elected to the 
Hospital staff in 1879 as physician of the Out-patient Department. 
Soon after he was appointed Professor of Pathological Anatomy 
in Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. In 1884 he was in- 
vited to deliver a course of lectures at the Lowell Institute, Bos- 
ton. The medical world had just then gone mad on the germ 
theory as the cause of every disease. Dr. Longstreth chose for 
the subject of his Lowell Lectures, Against the germ theory of 
disease. Although meeting with contradiction at the time, every 
one of his conclusions has been proved by later medical research. 

While resident at the Hospital he had given special atten- 
tion to rheumatic diseases ; his original work along this line led 
to the request of a medical publisher that he would write the re- 
sults of his investigations. The outcome was the publication in 
1882 of Rheumatism, Gout, and some Allied Disorders, 

Since 1896 he has devoted his time to private practice, sever- 
ing then his connection with both the Hospital and the College. 
He has made a specialty study of defective circulation, correcting 
resultant disorders by original methods of treatment.

John Cooke Longstreth was graduated from Georgetown 
College, being first in his class, and valedictorian. He studied law 
with Eli K. Price, and was admitted to the bar in 1849. He soon 
attained high rank in his profession, and was particularly suc- 
cessful in practice in the Supreme Court. He was appointed 
United States Commissioner by President Buchanan. It was in 
connection with the noted trial in 1859 of Daniel Dangerfield, a

runaway slave, that his services became distinguished. As Com- 
missioner he presided at that trial when Dangerfield was ar- 
raigned under the Fugitive Slave Law. An excited crowd sur- 
rounded the court, while Lucretia Mott and other abolitionists, 
having provided skilled counsel, sat in the courtroom for fourteen 
hours to lend the influence of their presence to his cause. After 
all the arguments were finished, the Commissioner ordered the 
negro measured ; finding him half an inch shorter than the specifi- 
cations in the advertisement, he ordered his discharge, as not 
answering to the description of Daniel Dangerfield. 

The rejoicing crowd seized Dangerfield, put him into a car- 
riage, and pulled him in triumph through the streets ; they could 
hardly be restrained from forcibly paying the same honor to Com- 
missioner Longstreth. (.See 5-531.)

1832, in Philadelphia; d. at Moseley, Birmingham, Eng., May 19, 
1906, buried in West Laurel Hill Cemetery. 

In early life Horace J. Smith entered into mercantile affairs, 
buying from Peter Wright and Sons, the china business which 
the firm then conducted. About 1865 he moved to a suburban 
farm, " Edgely," near George's Hill. After many years spent in 
California and in European travel, with intervals of residence at 
" Ivy Lodge," their Germantown home, they settled in Moseley, 
Birmingham, England. 

At the time of the Civil War he was a member of the Sani- 
tary Commission, and acted for that organization in the field after 
the Battle of Gettysburg. It was he who inaugurated the cele- 
bration in Philadelphia of the centennial of the Boston Tea Party 
in 1773. 

^ John Jay Smith belonged to the Burlington Smith family, which was 
prominent in colonial times. He was a great-grandson of Richard Smith, mem- 
ber of the New Jersey Assembly, and grandson of John Smith of Franklin 
Park, member of the King's Council. The latter married in 1748, Hannah 
Logan, daughter of James Logan, Penn's scholarly secretary, whose home, 
"Stenton," is still standing.—" Historic Mansions of Philadelphia." Thompson 
Westcott. 

He was librarian of the Library Company of Philadelphia for twenty-one 
years, and one of the founders of the Girard Life, Insurance, and Trust Com- 
pany. He had great public spirit, and was influential in bringing to New York 
the great exhibition held at the Crystal Palace, London, in 1851. 

Impressed with the need of suitable burial places for large cities, he founded 
Woodlawn Cemetery in New York, Greenwood Cemetery in Long Island, and 
Laurel Hill and West Laurel Hill Cemeteries in Philadelphia. 

He took a practical interest in horticulture, and was for many years editor 
of " The Horticulturalist." In 1854 he edited the " Letters of" Dr. Richard 
Hill," " The Buriington Smiths." R. Morris Smith, Philadelphia, 1877. 

His descent is traced to Ethelred II of England. — " Americans of Royal 
Descent." Charles H. Browning. 1891. 



400 The Longstreth Family Records. 

At the close of the Centennial Exhibition he became vice- 
president of the Permanent Exhibition, and was, to a large ex- 
tent, its manager, until his departure for California; he was also 
general manager and treasurer of West Laurel Hill Cemetery 
Company. 

He was interested in many social movements, such as Postal 
Savings Banks, the Vacant Lots Association, and the Peace 
Movement. One of his last interests was the placing of a tablet 
in the Old Bailey Prison, London, in memory of the independence 
of the jury, which, in opposition to the instruction of the judge, 
acquitted William Penn and certain others on the charge of dis- 
orderly conduct in preaching on the streets of London. 

]\Iargaret L. Smith has always inclined towards benevolent 
interests ; as long as health permitted she took an active part in 
charitable work wherever she sojourned. She helps in good 
works in her present home, Moseley, and is a member of the 
Needlework Guild of America. 

It is to her initiative and encouragement that this revision 
of the Longstreth Family Records owes its existence.

in the Sixth Pennsylvania Cavalry, under Col. Rush, and was 
honorably discharged. He was several times promoted, his rank 
at the end of the war being Lieutenant-Colonel. He suffered 
for months the tortures of Libby Prison, and was also confined in 
the prison at Charleston. While travelling in a cattle-car with 
other Union prisoners, he made his escape by jumping from the 
train and hiding in a swamp, where he lived for days on wild ber- 
ries. For a week he travelled on foot towards the Union lines, 
and when so near that he could hear the northern guns, he fell 
from exhaustion, and was caught by the bloodhounds which were 
upon his trail ; the scars from their teeth he bore till his death. 
He was a member of the Loyal Legion. 

They lived at " Phil-Ellena," the Carpenter estate on Ger-

Thaddeus Longstreth was bom on his father's farm, and edu- 
cated in the district schools, and at the Normal School, Lebanon. 
At the age of seventeen he left school and enlisted as a private in 
Company G, First Regiment of Western Sharpshooters (after- 
wards known as the Sixt}--sixth Illinois), and was promoted to 
the ranks of Corporal and Sergeant. He took part in the cap- 



Fifth Generation, 403 

ture of Columbia, and in the battle of Mt. Zion. Later his regi- 
ment joined Grant's army at Cairo, III., and shared in the opera- 
tions at Fort Henry and Fort Donelson, Shiloh, and Corinth. In 
August, 1862, he was honorably discharged for disability caused 
by severe illness, from whose effects he suffered more than thirty 
years. A year later he re-entered the service, was commissioned 
as First Lieutenant, and engaged in recruiting and organizing 
volunteers ; was transferred as First Lieutenant to Company A, 
One Hundred Forty-sixth Ohio Volunteers ; appointed Second 
Lieutenant and recruiting officer ; promoted to the captaincy of the 
One Hundred Eighty-third Ohio Volunteers, and ordered into 
active ser\ace. He was in the engagements at Columbia, Tenn., 
Spring Hill, Franklin, and Nashville, and took part in the pursuit 
of Hood's army. In January, 1865, he was transferred with the 
Twenty-third Army Corps to North Carolina, in the campaign 
against Wilmington, Kingston, Goldsboro, and Raleigh, which re- 
sulted in the surrender of Johnston's army. He was mustered 
out with his regiment July, 1865, after nearly four years of ser- 
vice. 

At the close of the war he entered business at Lebanon. O., 
but moved to Columbus in 1868, and engaged in the coal business. 
He bought a thousand acres of coal land in and about Nelson- 
ville, and for twenty-two years was one of the most active and 
successful coal operators in central Ohio, and a large shipper to 
the Great Lakes. In later years impaired health prevented an 
active business life. 

His personal traits were such as to gain him many friends, 
and though by nature retiring, in business enterprise he was bold 
and self-reliant. He was a member of the Columbus Board of 
Trade, and a useful and public-spirited citizen. He was a mem- 
ber of the Sons of the American Revolution, the Grand Army of 
the Republic, and the Militan,- Order of the Loyal Legion, Com- 
manders' of the State of Ohio.

No children. 

^ Rudolph von Horram-Schramm was a member of the Constitutional As- 
sembly of Prussia, which in 1848 gave that country its Constitution. As a 
representative of the people, he voted against the levying of taxes without the 
consent of the governed; for this he was prosecuted, and withdrew into exile 
to England. After the downfall of the reactionary government, he had his 
trial reopened and was acquitted. He was Prussia's Consul-General in Milan, 
Italy, in 1866, where he took an active part in favor of the war with Austria, 
considering it unavoidable if Germany was ever to be reunited. He published 
numerous political pamphlets, in one of which in 1855 he outlined the policy 
later carried out by Emperor William I, resulting in the re-establishment of 
the German Empire. The family records date back to the twelfth century, 
and contain much interesting matter concerning the troubles in the Nether- 
lands under the Spanish rule, the religious wars, the French period, etc. The 
family has from early times been settled on the left bank of the Rhine, 
and by many intermarriages with French Huguenots, became strongly at- 
tached to the reformed religion; several of its members have held the highest 
offices of the reformed clergy, particularly the Rectorate of the University of 
Herborn, a Protestant theological seminary in Hesse-Nassau. 



4^6 The Longstreth Family Records. 

Raimond von Horram-Schramm was born in Berlin, Ger- 
many, being the first in his family for six generations who was 
not born under the French government. He studied in German, 
Belgian and Swiss universities, from which he holds degrees as 
Doctor of Philosophy and Candidat en droit; the degree of Bach- 
elor of Laws was conferred upon him by the University of New 
York. His special line of study is political economy, on which 
subject he has published treatises in German, French, and Eng- 
lish. 

In 1873 he held government office in Alsace-Lorraine, and 
served that country as Commissioner of the World's Fair at 
Vienna, and in other departments. He came to America, where 
relatives on both sides of his family have had important commer- 
cial interests for almost a century. He is a landed proprietor of 
Rhenish Prussia ; his American interests are in eastern Colorado, 
where he holds ranches and other property. He is a member of 
the Chamber of Commerce, Denver, his home being in that city.

Clara H. Atlee lives in West Philadelphia. 

' Dr. Edwin P. Atlee was a great-grandson of William Atlee, of Fordhook 
House, parish of Acton, near London. According to Thome's " Handbook to 
the Environs of London," Henry Fielding, the novelist, resided for a time at 
Fordhook House. 

The name Atlee is of ancient origin, its early form being Atte Lee; Sir 
Richard-at-the-Lee figures in the ballads of Robin Hood, as one of Robin's fast 
friends. That picturesque outlaw came upon a fayre castell, 

" And there dwelled that gentyll knight, 
Syr Richard at the Lee 
That Robin had lent him good 
Under the grene Avode tree." 

William Atlee left England in 1733 as secretary to Lord Howe, appointed 
Governor of Barbadoes. He married Jane Alcock, daughter of an English

Exploring Expedition which surveyed the Isthmus of Panama, 
and was on shore duty at the Brooklyn and Philadelphia Navy- 
yards.

where he built up a large practice, being recognized as one of 
the foremost physicians in Delaware County. He was a mem- 
ber of the Delaware County Institute of Science, for a time its 
secretary and curator. He contributed several papers read at its 
meetings and published in the " Proceedings," among these being, 
" A List of Winter Birds," " A List of Delaware County Plants,"

daughter of Archibald Duncan and Virginia C. (Hobday) Mc- 
Duffie, b. July 19, 1861, at Monroe, La. 

When a young man, A. N. Spencer went to Texas, where 
he engaged in mercantile business. Later he carried on ranch- 
ing and cattle raising in western Texas. 

When Oklahoma was opened for settlement, he filed on 
land in the North Canadian valley, where he founded the town of 
Yukon. He engaged in railroad construction, and was identified 



480 The Longstreth Family Records. 

with the business interests of the town for a number of years ; 
he gave building lots to each church organization, while the pub- 
lic school system is largely due to his work. He was founder, 
and for some years president, of the Bank of Yukon. In politics, 
he was a Democrat, and in 1894 represented his district in the 
Territorial Legislature. 

In 1898 business called him to Kansas City, Mo., where his 
family now lives. He still retained, however, an interest in the 
development of the state and town he helped to build.

where he took the scientific course, but left in 1869 to become 
rodman on the Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Rail- 
road. The next year he was put in temporary charge of the 
construction of the " Dresden Cut-ofif," and became assistant 
engineer of maintenance-of-way on the Cincinnati and Mus- 
kingum Valley Railroad. In 1871 he was made engineer of loca- 
tion and construction of the Bell's Gap Railroad, a branch of the 
Pennsylvania Railroad east of Altoona, which required great engi- 
neering skill because of the heavy mountain work involved. On 
its completion, he became general superintendent and chief engi- 
neer. In 1879 he accepted a similar position on the Pittsburg, 
New Castle and Lake Erie Railway, now the Pittsburg and West- 
ern, soon resigning to take the same position on the Pittsburg 
Southern. He became manager and chief engineer of the Pitts- 
burg, Chartiers and Youghiogheny, and the Chartiers Block Coal 
Company in 1882, completing the line and opening its mines. 

In 1883 he was made chief engineer of the Cincinnati, 
Hamilton and Dayton Railroad. In 1890 he transferred his ser- 
vices to the Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and St. Louis Rail- 
way — the " Big Four " — as assistant to President Ingalls ; and in 
1891 became also general manager of the " Big Four " system, 
being at the same time president of the Cincinnati and Springfield, 
and the Peoria and Pekin Union Railway; vice-president of the 
Cincinnati, Wabash and Michigan, the Indianapolis Union Depot 
Company, and the Belt Railway. In 1893 he became general 
manager of the Terminal Railroad Association of St. Louis, and 
his name is linked with the building of the Union Station, one of 
the finest buildings of its kind in the world. In 1895 he was made 
general manager of the Wabash Railway system, and was shortly 
elected to the vice-presidency, holding both ofifices until 1901, 
when he became president. From this ofifice he retired in 1905. 
Much of the development of the Wabash system is due to his 
initiative, including the extension of the line into Pittsburg. He

APPENDIX E. 

Letter of Daniel Longstreth addressed to 
Daniel AIichener 
near 
Mountpleasant p. Office 
Jefferson County Ohio. 

Warminster 12 mo. 31. 1831. 
Dear Cousin, 

The last letter which my Father received from thee was dated 9 mo. 
nth 1825. I wrote to thy Brother Barak M. of Canton Ohio on 8 mo. 
I2th, 1827 and had the pleasure of an answer dated 12 mo 15th 1827 to 
which I replied on 2 mo 24th 1828. Since which time (now near 4 
years) we have heard little or nothing from any of our relatives living 
on the west bank of the Ohio river. 

I should have forwarded a letter of enquiry ere this time if I had 
been certain 01 the manner in which it would be received. But suffi- 
cient time having elapsed for the evaporation of bad feelings engen- 
dered by the late dissensions in the religious Society of Friends. I now 
venture to send this social epistle. 

Since the receipt of thine in 1825 many changes have taken place in 
our family and amongst our relations. Aunt Jane Longstreth died 6th 
of 12 mo. 1825. My sister Anna's husband John Thompson died 25th 
of 3 mo. 1826. I married Elizabeth daughter of John Lancaster of 
Philadelphia 4th of ist mo. 1827, and had the misfortune to lose her on 
the 19th of 9 mo. 1829, and she left me with a son John and a daughter 
Elizabeth and she only one week old at the time. I was settled on the 
lower farm between where Uncle Isaac & Uncle John used to live — 
there being an addition built to the house. 

My dear Mother was previously deceased loth of 3 nio. iS2<j. I 
returned again to my Father's where we now reside together. My sister 
Mary T. married Demas C. Worrall of Byberry on 13th of 10 mo. 1831. 
and removed to reside with him some weeks ago. Sister Susan married 
Ellis Cleaver Jr. 9th of 3 mo. 1826. 

I saw our step-grandmother a few days ago who is still living with 
cousin Rachel Maris in 8th St. near Spruce. Phila. Her memory is 
much impaired and she seldom leaves her room. She had a severe 
illness about four years ago since which time her walks have I)ecn con- 
fined to the house. Before that time it was no unusual thing for her 
to walk to Green St. and pay 4 or 5 visits amongst her friends and 



7/8 The Longstreth Family Records. 

then return again to R. Maris' in time for dinner. The circuit might 
probably measure 3 miles, and may be considered a pretty good pedes- 
trian feat for a woman more than 90 years of age. 

She was born 21st of 11 mo. 173H answering as I suppose to 21st 
of January 1736. There is an apparent decrepancy of dates in an attempt 
to change from Old to New Stile by some unknown person. 

Aunt Esther Longstreth and her two daughters, Sarah and Hannah 
live in Walnut St. & keep a boarding house. 

Uncle William Michener is now in his 87th year and appears to 
enjoy as good health as can be expected from one of his advanced age. 

I have given such information about our relatives as I hope will 
prove acceptable, and may I now be excused for asking the best infor- 
mation thee can impart respecting your families — thy brothers Benjamin 
and Barak in particular. Is Barak at Canton and what is he engaged at? 
Where does Benjamin reside and how far is Canton from Mount- 
pleasant. 

Is your portion of the State likely to be benefitted by the system of 
Internal Improvements going on in your and our states. Philadelphia is 
rapidly increasing in size and bids fair to become a great manufacturing 
emporium. Between 3 and 4 thousand houses I suppose have been 
built the past season. The Lehigh and Schuylkill Coal Companies have 
introduced very generally in the city and in many stores & taverns in 
the country the use of Anthracite coal which makes a better fire than 
wood, requiring much less care and attention, either to warm a room 
or prevent accidents by fire. 

Last 5 mo. I took a ride on horseback through the upper side of 
this into " York State." Extensive coal mining operations are going 
on in our Wayne County, Pa. It is sent by a railroad 16 miles & then 
by a canal to the Hudson River & so to New York affording that city 
a supply of fuel. 

They were this fall busily engaged in leveling the Phila. and 
Norristown rail road by Germantown. It is intended ultimately to 
extend up Perkiomen to Lehigh, &c. &c. The rail road mania rages with 
great violence in these parts. 

Father and Uncle Isaac both are about but do not remain free from 
diseases incident to persons of their age. They are both troubled with a 
considerable cough. 

Thy affectionate Cousin 

Daniel Longstreth 

P. S. The family joins in love to you all. 

(Letter in possession of Mrs. Caroline Price Dawson.)
